Following a lovely journey down California’s Highway 101 with stops in Carmel and Santa Barbara, I have arrived in Hollywood 4 days early for the TCM Classic Film Festival.
In case any of my readers are unfamiliar with Backlots’ festival protocol, I will be enabling live tweets the day before the festival starts, and you can follow along on the blog in real time. I will be attending a press Q&A on Wednesday with Robert Osborne, Ben Mankiewicz, and other TCM personalities, and the preliminary festival coverage will start that evening with the information I obtain from that event. I will also be providing you with plenty of photos and information from the festival on the whole, including pictures of Hollywood and classic film-related sights in the area.
See you next time, and be sure to check out the beginning of Backlots’ festival coverage on Wednesday!
