Inside MVFF: Calling for Entries (based on a true story)

What did you think of the Oscars? The nominees. Winners. Dresses. Speeches. Upsets. Sure things. Billy Crystal. The Artist. Meryl Streep. No matter who you picked to win, no matter who you wanted to win, there’s no debating one fact we are very proud of.
“The Artist” was closing night of our festival in October. It went on to win Best Picture. The year before we showcased “The King’s Speech”, and the year before that was “Precious”. Something special happens in Mill Valley every October that translates into gold in February. We are thrilled to play a part in this wonderful tradition - and give a huge solute to all Bay Area Academy Members.

The Films of John Korty - a Bay Area Legend
On Thursdays and Sundays from November 10th to December 4th, the Smith Rafael Film Center will present the first major retrospective celebrating the work of John Korty, an American independent filmmaker. This year Korty turned 75 marking his 50th year of his career in the film industry. From comedy and social drama to animation and documentary, Korty was a pioneer in forging a filmmaking career in the Bay Area. His early studio in Stinson Beach inspired the arrival of Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas.
The retrospective will include seminal films in the independent feature movement of the 1960s and 1970s, as well as documentaries, animation, and short films. As one of the most successful directors of “made for television” movies, winner of an Academy Award and multiple Emmys, this retrospective event will prove to be an exciting one. For more information on John Korty, visit www.johnkorty.com.
The first program of the event, “Miracle in a Box: A Piano Reborn” with “John Allair Digs In!” [Premiere] is scheduled at 7:00 P.M. on Thursday, November 10th. John Korty will attend the programs and other special guests are anticipated as well.
