Yes, I'm Alive - and On My Way to L.A.!

It's been a while since I've posted. Sadly, I've collected quite a few things that need to go up (and apologies to people whom I've promised I would, and haven't - yet); I'm making a promise to myself that I'll get these things done upon my return.

Why am I making a big deal about my trip to L.A.? Because I will be attending a press screening at AMPAS of Upstream, a previously thought to be lost John Ford film!

It's one of 75 treasures recently found in New Zealand, restored and ready to make its debut September 1. I was lucky enough to get an invitation to the pre-screen, along with a roundtable by the finders of the films and the restorationists.

I'm really looking forward to this, and will be sure to make a full report!

(If you'll be there as well, please be sure to find me and say hello!)
