2015 Sundance Film Festival, Part 2

We arrived in Park City and hit the ground running, quickly accepting that once again we were on a kid-free trip, yet we way-under-rested-mamas would not sleep a wink!

Ethan Hawke.  He looked a bit rough last year,
so it was so nice to see him cleaned up a bit this year. 

He will forever be a favorite, because of Reality Bites,
but I am excited for all the acclaim he is receiving this
awards season for Boyhood.

Christopher Abbott.  Who I looooved as Marnie's
boyfriend on Girls.  Later that day we got to see him in the
premiere of James White.

Hailee Steinfeld in town to promote Ten Thousand Saints,
We tried for tickets.  No dice.  A solid cast, and I heard
good reviews during the week.  I can't wait to see it.

He is a Sundance staple!  I do love me some

Clearly I heart him.  I practically wrapped myself in his jacket.
 As always, my scruples are out the window on this trip.

Emile Hirsch. Was this before or after he drunkenly
beat up a women, at an industry party, during the
festival? I liked him, as an actor, until I heard about
that bit of shenanigans. 

Jeff and Jordan.  They met on Big Brother, but
I remember watching them on the Amazing Race.

and...I was the only one who recognized them
and knew their names.  If there is ever a
wicked low brow version of Jeopardy, sign me up!


Emile Hirsch and Hailee Steinfeld.

Hailee Steinfeld & Kristen Wiig

She then recognized me from the airport.  I told
her she looked much less 'flu-like' and should now
stop for a real pic.
Haaaa!
James Marsden.  We chatted OKC with him.

Can we have a moment?  KEVIN SMITH!
Dear God, I love him!  

We were so excited we scored tickets to this film

James White was a good see.  Hard to watch at times, but overall 
I do appreciate the story, and the casting was spot on. 

Here's Christopher Abbott and Cynthia Nixon during the
Q&A with the audience, after the premiere.  I say it every single
time, but it is such a treat to hear the cast and crew discuss the film.

Christopher Abbott and the film's director, Josh Mond

post premiere Q&A. 

I geeked out when I saw director Cutter Hodierne.
He brought the excellent film I mentioned after
last year's festival, Fishing Without Nets (which
began as a short film at the festival in 2012, and received
funding to then be made into a feature).  It was nice
to chat with him, and some of the people behind that film
and to hear they were at this year's festival to receive a
grant...so I know that means more goodness to come on
the screen, by his direction.

He might be the douchiest of celebs:

I have never seen him act, but his maj douche-ness 
on Main Street leads me to assume he blows 
chunks all over the big screen.

Just sayin'!


Okay, I am out for now, but stay tuned for
more mamarazzi chronicles!!

2015 Sundance Film Festival, part 1


One of my best friends and I ditched our husbands and kids for a few days of adventures in Park City, Utah for the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. The adventures began, the minute I departed my airplane as I had a long ass wait at the airport, waiting on my friend's arrival.  We had a slight mix up on our flight arrival times and I arrived 7 hours before her.  This girl here (me) made some damn fine lemonade out of those aiport lemons.  I got my camera out and went to work doing my mamarazzi thing. 


I legit had no clue who she was, but was like I totally 
know that face, and her name is Jennifer.  I did some
follow up research after latte purchase (see, we were at the
airport Starbucks). I think my ridiculous photographic
 memory can be credited to all the nights in college I slept 
with a  picture of Albert Einstein under my pillow. 

I was on the phone with my girlfriend (who at this point 
wasn't even at the airport to fly and meet me...we are 
quite the pair), drinking a latte WHEN I freaked the
eff out, hung up on my friend, spilled a bit of latte
on my leg as I noticed Kristen Wiig was walking past.

Whatevz, worst pic ever and she is totes a favorite.
I should try and remedy this upon arrival in Park City.

Or...I could march on over, let her know I didn't get
a good pic and ask for a redo right then and there.

We chatted a bit, but she was hesitant for a picture as
she was just getting over the flu.  So...she decided
this would cover up her flu face.  As if.  I still
absolutely adore the stuffing out of everything
she brings to the screen!


Where's Kevin Bacon, Yo!?!

Kellan Lutz insisted I be in the pic with him.  Too bad I decided
to dedicate my gaze to someone else's camera.

Mamie Gummer.  She looked HANGRY.

Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots

I can't even.  Adrian Grenier


Gaaaaaaw I was sooooo crazy excited!!! John Cusack
is one of my most favorite actors.  The driver didn't 
flinch over my excitement.  That's when it dawned 
on me Oh, Joan Cusack...I was still excited.

Joan Cusack arrived, and I realized she was crying
her eyes out.  So, I didn't keep snapping.

Jack Black.  He is not a favorite of mine, but the
 reviews of  The D Train, which premiered at the festival, 
have me excited to see this film. 



He goes by: Kid Cudi (musician)/Scott Mescudi (actor)
Had the pleasure of him seeing him the next day
in the film James White. Excellent!

Well friends, that's a wrap ON MY 7 HOURS AT THE SLC AIRPORT!
Just you wait...this year's festival was loaded with many a celeb sightings!!

Soon friends, soon.  I promise.
