I too had a remarkable time at Cinevent. I discovered that Michael and I both had recently purchased one sheets from Chandler, a ghastly 1972 Warren Oates movie that I had been a production assistant on when I was a student at USC film school. I couldn't believe there was another person on the planet who had a vague interest in that movie. I got the poster as an entree to getting in touch with old friends from film school. Small world.
Then virtually all the mopo folks helped me through the anxiety of deciding to purchase a 'holy grail' poster - an original dutch one sheet from Von Sternberg's Blonde Venus...a magnificent Dietrich image. No offense to my wife, who thank goodness supports the purchase, I'm in love again. It was wonderful putting faces to all the active participants in this group. Michael stayed at my house, Alan H and son came over for dinner. And we had a dinner out with Richard H and Sean L. Next year, you are all welcome to Columbus over Memorial Day weekend.
