CLOSER... CLOSER!!

The days go by and the Florida Film Festival keeps its promise to deliver amazing films to wonderful people! We are now officially halfway through the week and the excitement has not yet left it's peak.

Tomorrow (Thursday the 15th) the Obselidians arrive. Writer and first-time director Diane Bell, producer Chris Byrne, and actors Michael Piccirilli and Gaynor Howe will all be in attendance at the festival until it closes on Sunday. They are really excited to meet with everyone at the Enzian for their second and final screening at FFF2010, which will be at 1:30 PM.

And you have to admire their endurance. Since the film premiered in late January, 2009, they have been in attendance at film festivals like Sundance, Tiburon, Ashland and Dallas. The film has received much recognition, including "Excellence in Cinematography" and the "Alfred P. Sloan Prize" at Sundance, a special screening at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington D.C. and it won "Best Feature Film" at the Ashland Independent Film Festival!

The film is finishing up in Dallas today. Here's to wishing them luck with that, and safe travels to Orlando, FL!
