After I got April's package I had to start getting ready to go to the screening of a movie Dan/DH worked on last summer. It's called "When Zachary Beaver Came to Town". It's based on a children's book. It was shot here in Texas in Austin and Grainger. FYI: Second hand lions was being shot at the same time here in Austin too.
The story is about a big fat kid (Zachary Beaver or Zach) who comes to Grainger, TX and meets these 2 other kids, one of them played by Jonathan Lipnicki (the Jerry Maguire kid). They all become friends and spend the summer togather. My favorite character, though, is Jonathan's dad who is played by one of my favorite actors: ERIC STOLTZ. He is soooooooo cute and I love everithing about it! So much that Dan almost didn't want me to go to set when they were shooting here last summer (jealous maybe? ;). But I did anyway =) We weren't even engaged back them, so he was not gonna tell me what I could do (not that he can now either...He says it himself that I'll just do whatever I've already made up my mind to --specially when it comes to SB )
The Austin Film Festival sent us an invitation some weeks ago and it said they were invating all cast and crew. I expected to see of the crew more than anything 'cause I didn't think the actors would come just for a screening. Last year at the wrap party the only ones there were Jonathan & Sasha (Zachary). No Eri S. =(((( I got drunk for free though and I had a good time w/my friends, and that is never bad.
We went last nite and let me tell you this is a GREAT movie. It made me laugh, made me cry and it entertained me. That would have been worth the 9 or 10 bucks at the theatre. BTW you can check out the cast & crew list @
It was a new roll, so I have at least 10 pixs left, but I'll get it developed ASAP & I'll share.
Now you see what a great day I had yesterday?!?!?!? It was all too exciting. I felt like a toddler in Xmas morning. All this for me? ;)
Check out the movie if & when they release it for the public. It was an independent film, so *maybe* it'll be played in other cities. (Crossing fingers)
Well, bye for now.
