It all began in the car ride from Phoenix International Airport. I shared a shuttle with a lovely middle-aged woman. We conversed the entire time discussing movie options and our past and present careers. She was genuinely interested in a day in the life of a fashion blogger! Coincidentally or not so coincidentally, we ran into each other two more times throughout the festival. One day as we stood in line waiting to enter the theatre, one of her sister’s exclaimed, “I recognize you from your website. We googled your name!” I was not expecting to gain three new fans from the shuttle ride alone, but I was so excited that I did.

Sharon is a socialite. She has a great group of friends all with diverse backgrounds. I enjoyed spending time with each and every one of them. From red carpet fashions, food, travel, makeup, to the blog, we discussed it, and occasionally laughed about it! The generation gap did not matter. It was the conversation and good company that did. While we might not have the same taste in slip dresses, we can all share and appreciate the small things in life. Now what was my favorite movie, you may ask? Definitely “Drawing Home,” a romantic narrative inspired by a true story. It took place in Banff, Canada…let’s just say I found my next destination for blog pics!

The lovely narrative “Belle and Sebastian” took place in France during the Second World War and starred a young boy and a dog. While local farmers are determined to find and hunt the “beast,” aka Belle the Great Pyreneese – who they are convinced has been killing their sheep, Sebastian befriends her. The boy and dog not only go on providing comfort and company for each other, but end up playing a pivotal role in the lives of all those they cross paths with. If you’re a dog-lover, you’ll find this picture particularly heartwarming!

Zeus and me – one of the guest Great Pyreneese pups who made a special appearance following the film.

This year’s audience choice winner, for Best Feature Film – Drama “Like Sunday, Like Rain” was one word: exquisite. Set in an affluent New York City neighborhood, this story shines a light on an extraordinarily intelligent pre-teen boy, Reggie and his nanny, Elanor, a young musician. Accepting of the other’s very different background, Reggie and Elanor’s bond gets stronger the more they discover about one-another. A plot synopsis will not do this narrative justice. Add Like Sunday, Like Rain to your must-see list ASAP and consider a trip to Sedona during next year’s movie marathon!
