On my sequential birthday (67) I predicted to my son, Blake, that “The Stairs” would be accepted into another film festival in honor of my birthday. Well, my prediction came true. Thanks to the New York Sun Fest of Ellington, New York. (See email below) “The Stairs” shall have a live screening this summer in Ellington. (Western New York State) Please advise if you are planning on going.
I love laurels. Great gift Sun Fest.
Thanks to all the Facebook patrons for wishing me a happy birthday.
For the curious or for those keeping score, here are our stats:
One film festival —- first place finish;
Two additional acceptances with laurels—waiting for final results;
Another festival called our film a “masterpiece.”
Four rejections.
For baseball fans we are batting 500.
That ain’t bad or as the optimist in me says, “That’s darn good.”
