Mill Valley Film Festival

File Under: Festival Planning

Last night, Lynne and I made our way over to Mill Valley for the Mill Valley Film Festival which had two commendable opening night films, I (heart) Huckabees and Finding Neverland. It sounds (and is frankly) glamorous that we can attend Opening Night celebrations as part of our research for work.

Unfortunately, yet expectedly our conversations usually go something like this:

Lynne: "Interesting, they had people saving those reserved seats on every row."

Me: "Yeah, did you notice if they said thank you to the sponsor in their opening speech?"

At the party, Lynne is checking the set-up of the room and I am asking the workers if they are a sponsor or vendor. Yeah, we're party animals here, really. No, really.

Mill Valley put on an excellent Opening Night and their program looks fantastic. NAATA is co-presenting A Tale of Two Sisters at the beautiful Castro Theatre and I'll be in the audience watching. See you at the movies.
