Cinequesting!

Well folks, it is the day after the opening premiere of "Eden Court" and the opening Gala. We attended both and I hope to have a picture posted here later today of the California Theatre. It is probably the coolest retro theatre I have ever been to in my life. It reminds me of the Capitol Theatre/Villa Theatre in Salt Lake, but about 10 times cooler! They had a guy playing showtunes on an old style organ with his back facing the crowd on the stage and when the announcer came out on the stage it slowly lowered into the floor. Way cool.

The opening movie was pretty good. Made me laugh and cry a little, a real feel good story about the people in this world that get sidelined from their dreams and think their life is in the shitter and then realize that if they appreciate what they have they realize that they have a great life.

The party was packed to the point of discomfort and we had to sneak a couple of our group in because we didn't have tickets or enough passes to go around. Met a few actors, and film makers, but other than that pretty uneventful. I did manage to walk up to a camera crew for the local NBC affiliate and get a phone number to call to get Andrew, our director/writer, an interview. Wish me luck on getting this to happen in the next couple of days.

We were reviewed in the San Jose Metro yesterday. You can read it here, at the link below. We are fairly happy with the review, and just glad to finally have our first published review.

Well, I have to get, more later.

Until then "leave your hat on."
