WOODSTOCK FILM FESTIVAL!



I leave for the festival tonight.

I'm very excited. There's a bunch of films I want to see, and tons of people I'd like to hear speak. Not enough time.

It's funny--all these people that worked on "Off the Black" are part of different cool panels: Scott Macaulay is on a panel called "The Art of Producing," Andrew Hurwitz in speaking on "Entertainment Law," Tracy McKnight on "Music for Film," Sabine Hoffman on "The Art of Film Editing," and Tim Hutton will be part of an "Actors Dialogue" (with David Strathairn, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Griffin Dunne). I'm going to try to go to all of these panels, and then do the Q and A after we screen our film on Friday and Sunday, and perhaps go with my friend Astra to check out this:

OPUS 40

Should be a great weekend. I'll write about it when I return to the real world...

...it's not pretty. But it's damn funny.

Yes, I'm taking notes.
