I didn't know exactly how big this whole film festival thing was in San Luis Obispo, until opening night. So many people of all ages went and the festival director and president got up and explained what would be going on throughout the rest of the week.
The first film of the Festival was called Industrial Light and Magic. ILM is a company founded by George Lucas that does special effects and CG for alomst ALL the movies we watch today. It is the leading company in its industry and continues to grow and try new thing. Learning about that process and a little bit of the history of film production was fascinating. We have come SO far from the tornado in the original Wizard of Oz :)
Robin Williams was in it and was of course hilarious, and Tom Cruise narrated.
It was amazing!!!
If you even get the chance to see it I highly recommend it.
I am not a huge documentary film watcher, but this one I can easily say I loved.
The best thing about Bentleys new job is definitely the free tickets to all the local events.
I am going to enjoy this SO much.
This year is going to go by faster than usual :)
Stay tuned for more SLO Living....
