Bacon-directed flick heading to another fest

Kevin Bacon is getting some film festival love.

"Loverboy," the second movie directed by Bacon, will open the 10th annual Gen Art Film Festival, scheduled April 6-12. The film premiered earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival.

Based on the book by Victoria Redel, "Loverboy" stars Bacon and his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, who plays a dangerously overprotective mom.

Bacon also directed "Losing Chase," a 1996 TV movie starring Sedgwick and Helen Mirren.

He starred in "Mystic River," "Hollow Man," "Apollo 13" and "Footloose."
