## Caption

✨ Our history, reintroduced.

We dug into the vault and found this iconic moment with the late, great John Witherspoon. Happy belated to a true legend who hosted our comedy show at the film festival back in 1998 in Acapulco!

He set the tone in unforgettable fashion and introduced the likes of so many of your favorite comedians who went on to tear the house down. What a moment. What a legacy. 🎤🌴
