De Niro and His Tribeca FiIm Festival Closing Night -Anna Wilding
Well the Tribeca FiIm Festival Closing Night is on. De Niro was there. See picture . I am exhausted -I decided to walk for miles today and then go for a swim at the gym.( I tried to hike up Bear Mountain a couple of weeks ago and was unable to.Well put it this way,I was closer to the foot of the mountain than the top!) The Tribeca party is still going on but I had to dash off to somewhere else and now I am home."Early to bed early to rise makes a girl healthy and wise ,as they say.
I didn't go to too many things at Tribeca this year though I was accredited Industry again.I saw three films only and may see one tomorrow.I went to a couple of premieres...see pics at www.gettyimages.com and that's about it.
The festival was much better organized and far smoother than last year.It's not a festival thats great for the actual business of film but it's good for watching films. Tribeca is one of many film festivals around the world designed for film audiences. Its a good opportunity to see interesting and certainly some accomplished films you may not otherwise see except on DVD or limited art house runs.If in NY also check out the Havana Film Festival for that, and various others.
Here's some pics from tonights party. My Aussie colleague Rod ,who is one of Australia's biggest TV producers,got himself on Letterman as an audience member and actually managed to promote his feature film thats playing at the festival !
Lloyd Kaufman who I haven't seen for a while made De Niro's first movie
