Goldfish is an official selection of the Palm Springs Film Festival, my home town! It plays at the Camelot Theatre Saturday, August 23 at 10a. I cannot think of a more ideal time to play in Palm Springs. The audience will be so grateful to be in an air-conditioned theater it won't matter what's on the screen.
Growing up in Palm Springs, to get out of the house in the 120 degree summer we saw every movie that was out (many at the same Camelot Theatre). Maybe that's why so many of my friends now work in entertainment. (The other thing to do was sneak onto the golf course at night, drink beer, and go ice-blocking. You buy a big block of ice, find a hill in the golf course, and slide down it like a sled). Hopefully they'll give me some free tickets to this I can give out. If anyone's going to be in PS and wants to go get a beer and see a movie with me, lemme know (hey, maybe we'll go ice-blocking).
