I just spent a wonderful weekend in Indianapolis (which is a great laid-back city) at the Heartland Film Festival. They’ve done an incredible job with the fest, and have a heck of staff on-board (which happen to be some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet). I also ran into Mark Pellington (director of films like Arlington Road and the Mothman Prophecies), and Bob Berney (president of PictureHouse) who are both great guys. Also randomly bumped into Abigail Disney who had a film showing at the fest, and Carlos Diaz (Extra guy)… I love meeting new people. Anyhow, I got to hang-out behind the scenes of their awards gala, which was just spectacular and a true rarity in film fests. That said, if you get a chance, check out Heartland, it’s definitely worth the trip!
