101 Faces

Last night I finally had the world premiere of my little movie. Since the show is only about five and a half minutes long, I decided to have a pseudo housewarming in conjunction with the screening. I’ve been in my house now for almost two years and haven’t had any kind of shin-dig so I thought it was a good idea to combine the two events into one big super event.

So here’s how it all went down. The red carpet was rolled out and like all good movie openings, the paparazzi were swarming the house making it difficult for people to get through the door. Fortunately I made sure to have ample security and velvet ropes allowing easy access for the celebrities that were attending. The first guests arrived about seven thirty and merriment ensued for several hours before the big event. I made sure to have plenty of food and drink so people would be fat and happy to hedge my bets for a successful evening.

I think overall the screening was a hit. People laughed, some cried, and I was told it was better than Cats. I guess in a perfect world I would have had a giant studio to do all the professional style editing and end up with a bonzer production that would launch my career as a movie executive (because I’m clearly not going anywhere with my mountain biking career). Since I didn’t have any of that and given the circumstances under which I was working to finish the flick, I’d have to say I’m happy with the way it turned out. I may still go back and do some additional tweaking, but for now, it’s finished and that’s the most important part for me.
