Asheville
Film Festival
2007
Our Coverage of theAsheville, NC, 2007 Film FestivalNov. 8-11, 2007 This year's Asheville Film Festival, always one of the most exciting and prestigious events in NC, film or otherwise, presented its career award to Oscar-nomnated actress Tess Harper.
Harper (above in a publicity shot and speaking at the Asheville Festival this year, photo by Renee Wright) started her film career in Bruce Beresford's "Tender Mercies" in 1983 and has appeared in more than 70 movie and TV films, including "Silkwood," and "Crimes of the Heart." She's worked with Mike Nichols, Elaine May, Sam Shepherd, Robert Mulligan and the Coen Brothers in "No Country for Old Men." The film, if not Harper, is likely to see some Oscar nominations this year. |
Also at the Asheville Film Festival:Andie McDowell and "Intervention"
Our favorite event, however, was seeing Andie McDowell (above in a photo by Bestfilmfests' Renee Wright) at the screening of "Intervention," a unique film in which the actors improvised their dialog. McDowell said at least one actor really surprised her in a scene. |
