Body: Just found out that ticket sales at last weekend's Waterfront Film Festival topped 2007 numbers, with more than 14,000 admissions sold. The Saturday night screening of "Bart Got a Room" was the best-attended show, selling out the Saugatuck Yacht Services building with 699 seats filled. Other big sellers were "Kabluey," "The Flyboys," "Yonkers Joe," "Dakota Skye," "Man on Wire" and "Bonneville." Next year's festival will take place June 11-14. Source: MLive.com

Body: What did you see at Waterfront that you really loved? I was lucky to see several films and sit in all the seminars meeting some very interesting actors, producers, writers, and directors. Trying to fit in all that is possible, I'm still working out a 12 hour sleep deficit! I really enjoyed myself this year.I had a few favorites from the weekend. I sat on the edge of my seat watching Stephen Baldwin in Midnight Clear as his character spiraled deeper into desperation hoping he wouldn't harm and watching as connections of other characters where made to each other.My eyes were full of tears during Memories of Tomorrow, a tear drop running down my cheek every ten minutes as I watched a young businessman fall to Alzheimers his life devoted to his work, his remaining life now frustrating and wasted in a shrinking mind. I laughed quite a bit with, What's Wrong with DeeDee. This a very lighthearted film of miscommunication and good deeds. It's also produced by a Michigan company, Purple Rose!!I really enjoyed Blue State though it moved a little slow. For all of those/ all of us disgruntled with the current administration you'll enjoy watching the main character trying to find his way to Canada then realizing what he really needs to do.How could I forget American Fork??! This team of film makers is also responsible for Napolian Dynamite and Saquatch Dumpling Gang. The films are clean, hilarious, and always have a good message. It was nice to meet filmmakers devoted to their craft and making films that the whole family would enjoy.

Body: I mean, really meet them. If you'd like an opportunity to chat one on one, listen to advice, a career story, or how you can do more with film in Michigan, Waterfront's seminars are the place to be. There you'll be able to talk to actors, producers, writers, directors, etc. after the panel is over. Sometimes I even learn about films that I normally would have never picked and am always delighted.Seminars cost the same as a film, tickets available at the venue or box office.Here's more info:

Body: What's the next best thing than the films at a Waterfront?a.meeting people in line for a film,b.catching a glimpse of or a conversation with a famous actor, writer, or upcoming producer,c.hearing nationally renown musicians perform,d.the parties,e.morning coffee at Uncommon Grounds,f.late night indepth conversations with old and new friends, org.having to lift your feet at the boat shed venue due to flooding so you can enjoy the rest of your film safely (that only happened the first couple of years :).That's right, "d" the parties - though this list carries all my favorites of the festival!OPENING NIGHTThe opening party will be Thursday night, June 7th. Plan on a casual happy hour party on the lawn of the Singapore Yacht Club between Coral Gables and The Butler restaurants.. This park is off Water Street, down the street and up river from where they used to hold it.There will be beer and wine available and one of the local restaurants will likely be selling dogs or s'thing as well. Party starts at 6:30, live music should start by 7:30 if not before and a free film will be shown there also once darkness falls. Bring a lawn chair if you want to sit and enjoy the film.I love this party as it's only on this night where ALL the film guests will be in one place providing ample opportunities to meet and mingle. It's a great night for all the volunteers to come together after so much preparation and a great night to run into friends.I'll post the film when I learn what it is - please post yourself if you find out before me :)I believe Emerson Hart will be the headliner also this year! He just released a new album and it's fantastic!**it's rumored that SPOUT will be a part of opening night as well**FRIDAY NIGHTThe Dunes bar in Douglas will be sponsoring a special showing of The Life of Reilly on Saturday night, 9pm at their place - tickets on sale there or through the Waterfront Box Office. This can be a pretty lively and interesting place to dance after the movie if you're up for it.
