Good Times Were Had By All!

RE: The 2007 Arivaca Film Exposition

An excellent film line-up and viewer turn-out made for a successful second annual Arivaca Independent Filmmakers Exposition was held yesterday in Arivaca, Arizona. The event was mentioned in the Arizona Daily Star as part of a line-up of film festivals in Arizona (http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/printDS/177766)

The film expo, sponsored in part by Psychotropic Films, presented feature length films in the afternoon and short works in the evening. In over 10-hours (12-noon - 10:00pm), 15 independent films, make by Arizona filmmakers were shown.

The small community atmosphere appealed to directors and actors in attendance, who were able to answer audience questions and discuss their films (see actor Brian Mulligan's blog entry for March 24th)

A pot luck dinner supplied by Arivaca residents who attended the event, kept everyone well-fed. Many people stayed for hours to watch the line-up of films and the healthy food made it possible for some people to hang in there all those hours!
