Park City: HEATHER COURTNEY at Slamdance

HEATHER COURTNEY at Slamdance

Arrived in one piece yesterday, greeted by a short but thorough blizzard (my editor Kyle Henry was nice enough to be the driver from Salt Lake City airport to Park City) ... what can I say about my first day ever at Park City? Hung up some posters, drank lots of Emergen Cs, tried not to lose it ... Also, since my film, LETTERS FROM THE OTHER SIDE is about immigration, I got in good with the local Mexican restaruant with prime window space for my poster (check out La Casita y'all). My Spanish has come in handy in snowy Park City ... like all over the U.S., immigrants are the ones doing all the hard work here!
If I survive my premiere, I'll write all about it all tomorrow.

Heather,
Wish we could be there in the audience! Wish you best of everything and big happy crowds at both showings.
p.s. I have a raspberry EmergenC almost every day.

Can't wait to hear how it went at the PREMIERE. What a long road and you've made it to the top of the mountain...literally!

Your film sounds great. I can't wait to see it. With Kyle Henry driving you, as well as editing your film, you are in very creative, talented hands. Really, good luck. (My second husband was a Chicano hero from East LA. Sadly he died in my son's arms in 1995. He used to go to the border on weekends to bring people over the border into the USA for free. Say 500 or so at a time.)
