Oh my I had a wonderful time in my former stomping grounds, the San Francisco Bay Area. Many friends attended the Sita Sings the Blues preview and responded most enthusiastically. I saw beloved old friends, made some new ones, and ate the most delicious food on Earth. More to come – but for now, I just want to say Thank You.
Apparently so many of my “friends and family” in San Francisco have RSVP’ed for Sita‘s Dec. 1 sneak preview screening, we’re adding a second show at 10 pm:
Saturday, December 1, 8:00 pm AND 10:00 pm
Oddball Film
275 Capp Street
San Francisco, CA 94110
$10 donation requested
RSVP 415.558.8117 or email info at oddballfilm.com
Remember, this is a sneak preview, NOT the premiere. I’ll be A’ing Q’s after both screenings. I love you all!

Whooee, last night’s “friends and family” sneak preview in NY was good times. Such a sweet, kind, supportive audience! But then what kind of friends and family wouldn’t be?
Now it’s time for me to pimp the next “Sita” event to all my “friends and family” in CA:
Saturday, December 1, 8:00 pm
Oddball Film
275 Capp Street
San Francisco, CA 94110
$10 donation
RSVP 415.558.8117 or email info at oddballfilm.com
They’ll add a second screening at 10 if 8pm fills up, so rsvp if you want to guarantee a seat at 8. Oh, and I love you all!
Donations supporting Sita Sings the Blues are now tax-deductible when made through the project’s fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas.
UPDATE 2: So many people have RSVP’ed we’re adding a second show at 9pm. 7pm is full. If you show up at 7 and your name’s not on the list, you can still see the preview at 9. Or there may be some no-shows you can replace.
UPDATE: if you want to attend the New York screening, please RSVP with “Sita NY” in the subject, to:
Space is limited, and priority will be given to those with names on the list. This is just a sneak preview; the bigger and better genuine premiere will happen in 2008.
New York:
Saturday, November 17, 7:00 pm and 9:00pm
NYU Tisch School of the Arts, room 006 (lower level)
721 Broadway, between Waverly Place and Washington Place
New York City
Free!
We’ll screen the whole 82-minute feature on DVD, then the 3-minute 35mm film test of “Battle of Lanka,” so you can see just how gorgeous it looks on film.
San Francisco:
Saturday, December 1, 8:00 pm
Oddball Film
275 Capp Street
San Francisco, CA 94110
$10 donation
RSVP 415.558.8117 or email info at oddballfilm.com
See the whole 82-minute feature on DVD. We’ll have samosas, T-shirts, and GOOD TIMES.
Both screenings are excellent opportunities for those of you who wish to contribute to the making of the 35mm film print to see what you may be supporting. And hopefully I’ll have fiscal sponsorship by then, meaning any donations (as opposed to loans) will be tax-deductible! Of course I’ll be there, answering questions, hawking art prints and begging for money. FUN!
