**NOTE: There will NOT be a Pizza Break/intermission tonight.**

Naturally, all times are approximate, especially the ending time.

RAFFLE

Did you all notice that there will be a raffle tonight? See above for details.

SEATING

This event is getting a lot of publicity outside of the usual MacFilmmakers channels. As such, we may get a much larger than normal attendance. So, just in case, let me say that seating is on a first-come first-serve basis. (Lord, let a 300-seat auditorium be a problem!)

IF YOU MISS THIS WEDNESDAY'S SHOWING

You can catch the film at one of its next screenings, including a charity event for people in need in Nepal showing in Edmonton, Canada in April, or at the Eilat Internaional Film Festival in Israel in May. Yeah, probably a wee bit easier just to catch it while it is here in Cupertino... ;^)

You can stay up to date on Lance's film via the film's website:
