We appreciate the generous support in past years, and we welcome the opportunity to build on our partnership with Yountville and its lodging and business communities. NVFF’s first seven years (including the upcoming event, November 8 – 12, 2017) have been a successful addition to Napa Valley’s cultural landscape: ‐ Bringing independent and awards season films and filmmakers into the valley ‐ Highlighting Napa Valley’s outstanding food and wine and hospitality ‐ Projecting a spirit of inclusivity, with events taking place throughout the valley and with a wide array of price points ‐ Growth from just under 25,000 total attendance year one to over 50,000 expected in 2017 ‐ $5 million dollars of direct spending by festival attendees each year ‐ An increasing percentage of available lodging booked by festival attendees, with longer stays and higher average daily rates (all on positive trend‐lines) ‐ A positive reputation in the entertainment industry, combining the best of the destination with important contributions supporting the work of independent filmmakers and promoting higher profile projects and talent at precisely the best time of the year. We anticipate continuing all of these positive upward trends in 2018 and beyond. Our new proposal returns us to one of the original tenets of our founding vision: to position Yountville as the VIP center of the festival, and home to the most exclusive film/food/wine/lifestyle experiences, available primarily to those attending from outside the area and booking multi‐night stays in Yountville lodging properties. The enclosed application details our new proposal to be executed with financial support from NVTID‐Yountville and in collaboration with the local lodging and business communities. Thank you for the opportunity.

The NVTID‐Yountville is the local governing board which focuses on the local spending of the half percent (.005) of the total TID assessment of two percent (2.0%) that is generated within the Yountville town limits. 1.5% goes to the regional TID and .05% stays within the local community to support local strategies and initiatives. The intent of the assessment is to support local activities and products that promote, support and enhance locally based tourism and hospitality efforts. The Napa Valley is well‐known as North America’s legendary and premier wine‐tourism destination. In Yountville we are committed to use that positioning to appropriately and strategically market the unique high end resort and culinary destination that represents what is the Yountville “brand” with and its many wine, culinary, cultural, and lodging and other hospitality destinations. The NVTID‐Yountville typically directly funds activities and programs which it manages itself or contracts out to others. On a limited basis, and subject to available funding, the NVTID‐Yountville board may consider external requests for funding support from outside organizations but has no obligation to do so. The NVTID‐Yountville Local Governing Board may entertain requests for funding whose sole objective is to advance tourism and hospitality in a significant and measurable way and which will have a demonstrated economic impact specific to the Town of Yountville community. Requests for Funding are to be considered at the sole discretion and direction of the NVTID‐Yountville governing board. Requests for funding will be evaluated based on how well the request meets the overall intent and spirit of the criteria outlined below. Please note that requests that do not meet these goals will not be considered. Criteria used by Governing Body for evaluation of funding requests include: Develop events or activities that help drive higher end tourism to the Yountville community reflecting the unique demographic visitor niche existing in Yountville. Events should be Yountville centered and focus on marketing to fill the unique high end 451 rooms that represent the Yountville lodging demographic. If not singularly Yountville focused, the proposal should have a dedicated marketing element appropriate for the Yountville brand. Preference is given for events or activities that primarily focus on travel Sunday through Thursday during the shoulder season months of December through March – known as the Cabernet Season. Yountville lodging typically approaches 100% occupancy on weekends. Proposals which focus on mid‐week and slow season bookings or trigger extended stay night minimums are preferred. Events or activities which support corporate events which bring midweek business Sunday – Thursday overnight stays year around are preferred. 8/23/2017 3 Seek to create and sustain events or activities that compel visitors to stay overnight. Although Napa Valley and Yountville is a popular destination for tourists on day‐trips, the ultimate goal of

  • Two Lovers Un Film Di James Gray
    presenta Two lovers un film di James Gray con Joaquin Phoenix, Gwyneth Paltrow, Vinessa Shaw durata 110 minuti uscita 20 marzo ufficio stampa Federica de Sanctis, 339/2476890 BIM DISTRIBUZIONE Via Marianna Dionigi 57 00193 ROMA Tel. 06-3231057 Fax 06-3211984 SINOSSI New York. Leonard non sa se seguire il proprio destino e sposare Sandra, la donna che i suoi genitori hanno scelto per lui, o ribellarsi e ascoltare i sentimenti che prova per la sua nuova vicina di casa, la bella e volubile Michelle, di cui si è perdutamente innamorato. Combattuto tra ragione e istinto, dovrà compiere la scelta più difficile... 2 NOTE DI PRODUZIONE Dopo tre film drammatici, i thriller polizieschi LITTLE ODESSA, THE YARDS e I PADRONI DELLA NOTTE, TWO LOVERS segna una svolta nella carriera dello sceneggiatore e regista James Gray. È il suo terzo film che viene selezionato in Concorso al Festival di Cannes ed è la sua terza collaborazione con l'attore Joaquin Phoenix. Racconta James Gray: "Sono diverse le fonti d'ispirazione all'origine di TWO LOVERS. Una di queste è Le notti bianche, un racconto di Dostoevskij, che ha come protagonista un uomo che coltiva un amore platonico e una vera e propria ossessione per una donna che incontra per strada. Ho trovato questa novella molto toccante. Il protagonista soffre evidentemente di un qualche disturbo psicologico, ma la storia parla soprattutto del suo rapporto con l'amore e mostra questo sentimento da una prospettiva diversa che ho trovato molto interessante. Spesso è difficile trattare seriamente l'amore e di solito i film che parlano d'amore sono commedie romantiche, visto che la condizione degli innamorati a volte appare un po' assurda.

  • Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema
    PERFORMING ARTS • FILM HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 26 VARNER When early filmgoers watched The Great Train Robbery in 1903, many shrieked in terror at the very last clip, when one of the outlaws turned toward the camera and seemingly fired a gun directly at the audience. The puff of WESTERNS smoke was sudden and hand-colored, and it looked real. Today we can look back at that primitive movie and see all the elements of what would evolve HISTORICAL into the Western genre. Perhaps the Western’s early origins—The Great Train DICTIONARY OF Robbery was the first narrative, commercial movie—or its formulaic yet enter- WESTERNS in Cinema taining structure has made the genre so popular. And with the recent success of films like 3:10 to Yuma and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the Western appears to be in no danger of disappearing. The story of the Western is told in this Historical Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on cinematographers; com- posers; producers; films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Dances with Wolves, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, High Noon, The Magnificent Seven, The Searchers, Tombstone, and Unforgiven; actors such as Gene Autry, in Cinema Cinema Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart, and John Wayne; and directors like John Ford and Sergio Leone.

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.
