I had an interesting time at the Austin Film Festival yesterday.
I did one of their Roundtable sessions, and sitting next to me at one of those tables was actor Robert Walden (LOU GRANT), who has just moved to Austin. We will probably have lunch together in the next week or two.
Also, a guy came up to me, asked if I was "Michael Druxman," then told me that, when he was a teenager back in the early 1970s, he would come to my house in Agoura Hills, CA, and watch the 16mm movies I would show almost every night in my living room. He said that watching movies in my house is what inspired him to go to film school.
Later, he became a psychotherapist, but now he wants to try screenwriting, which is why he was at the Austin Film Festival.
