so we left cannes after two weeks and are in barcelona now. our flight was on monday night at 11. wow! getting to barcelona was brutal. first off the last bus to the nice airport left at 7 so we were at the airport at 7:30. we couldnt check in for our flight until 9 so we waited. then when we checked in our bags were over weight so we had to pay 40 euros. then we get up to our gate only to find the flight was delayed by two hours. the airline gave us drink vouchers for the airport snack shop. i drank a lot of wine and fell asleep on a bench. manuel woke me up at 2:30 to board. so we were at that airport for seven hours. all the shops were closed, ours was the last flight of the night so there were only about 150 of us in the whole place. i did get kind of excited because natalie portmen and devandra banheart were in the airport at the same time as us. i thought i would make friends withthem on the flight and they would be my new best friends but they went off to brussels. thats ok because she had made a big mistake in cannes. she was on the jury that awarded benicio the best actor award.

i have to go someone is waiting for the computer but ill be back.

i dont even know where to begin. umm. tonight we got dressed up and went to the red carpet screening of the good the bad and the weird. it was a chinese spaghetti western. very funny, a little long. manuel and i have gotten into 4 red carpet screenings so far. first night was blindness, then 3 monkeys (which i slept all through), che, and then tonights. the weather has been good and bad, but the rain is so light that it doesnt matter much.

i sold my film to a television station. it is a new station that plays shorts 24/7. it airs in america, germany, and france (i think).

manuel and some of the guys on the trip signed up for a filmmaking competition. they had 24 hours to make a dark comedy called big hair. the screening and award cermony was at a very beautiful villa. the guys ended up winning the audience choice award.

This will be replaced by a new post soon regarding our trip to Cannes in 2008
