...with a great Sundance festival story. While attending the 2007 Sundance Film Festival (living in Utah means easy access to the Festival) I had the opportunity to meet the Australian agent for Emma Booth. Random seating at the restaurant for lunch placed my brother and myself next to a charming woman and as we began to converse she spoke of her work at the festival (at Sundance everyone is promoting something). Of course, this person was representing "the next big star" and encouraged us to check out the movie Clubland. When you hear that kind of thing one must always take it with a grain of salt and just smile and nod... Well, this woman was so utterly charming and genuinely friendly that we decided to make the effort and spend our Sunday afternoon committed to the "wait list" for this film. Clubland delivered... great performances, a great story and a wonderful cast of future stars. I actually felt invested in the characters within the first 5-10 minutes. It is rare that a chance recommendation turns out to be true but this is one of those moments when our time spent to see this film was worth every minute. Thanks for recommending such a wonderful film and watch for Emma Booth, after viewing this performance she really is "the next big star".
