So I missed blogging about day four because I was simply too tired and I fell asleep after a late night of films and parties. So I will combine day four and five into one. Yesterday we saw the films Pound Cake, Line in the Sand, American Gothic, and 2:22. Pound Cake would have to be my favorite of the day. It was original, it took place in the 80's, it demonstrates good storytelling of complex family relationships, the majority of the performances were fantastic, the overall entertainment value was superb, and I didn't find myself checking my cell phone for the time or texts. I have to admit, I really enjoyed 2:22 and the precinct scenes in Line in the Sand . The award ceremony was a little dysfunctional, lights going on and off, wrong clips getting played, trophies being mixed up and lost, but then everyone just played it fast and loose. Despite the setbacks and wrong cues everyone seemed to be rolling with the punches quite well. Dropping In didn't bring home any awards but it was still great to be there. Overall we seemed to be getting some pretty good feedback. The film screened again today. We actually had a great turnout for the show. A lot of people I talked to seemed to have come because of word of mouth. The laughs were loud and long. Even in the really really subtle parts. The Q&A afterward was fantastic. Almost everyone stuck around and threw out some great questions. As I left the festival, I was really encouraged and proud of our little flick. Our film is truly independent, it is good, and it has an audience out there. Now we just have to keep working at getting it to them. Thanks to everyone at the Santa Fe Film Festival who made this a great experience for the Dropping In Team. We were proud to be apart of this years programming. And for the last time, cheers from Santa Fe.
