Thank you, Madge, it is quite a community. It was a real kick to see so many Winedale colleagues last night from our reunion summer and from the early years (fols like Rob, Laura, Jerald, Carol, and Buddy). Fun was had by all. Geesh, Madge, you sure know how to apply the pressure. Hope I have a movie in sxsw next year. I better get cracking. Just as an aside, I didn't really make the movie. The director Malik made it and what a major job he did. Hard to believe the movie is a first film from him. Kudos go to him. Hope to see everyone soon. much love, michael From: Madge Darlington [mailto:madge@rudemechs.com] Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2012 08:10 AM To: weeklong-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org <weeklong-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Subject: [Weeklong-l] Searching for Sugar Man What a thrill! Thanks to Michael Barker, not only for treating some of us weeklong folks to movies and dinner this week, but also for making Searching for Sugar Man. Mums the word because the less you know about it going in, the better. Don't read reviews, just run and don't walk when it's released around the county at the end of July. Michael, safe travels as you leave Austin today. To the rest of you that are not in Austin, I'd suggest you start making trip plans now to be here next time Michael comes for SXSW. Great seeing so many of you this week. What an incredible community we have.

Thank you, Clayton.

It's a remarkable story, beautifully told. And see it in a theater if you can. The fusion of the music and imagery is often very moving. Michael, thank you also for helping remind me every March why we need to keep going OUT to see movies when we can, rather than just staying in. Laura was talking outside the Paramount afterwards about how as long as she's known you, you've been sharing your love of film with friends. How perfect that now you are doing that not just with old friends and Winedalers but also with audiences all over the world. Good stuff! cheers, cs On Mar 15, 2012, at 9:29 AM, Barker, Michael wrote: Thank you, Madge, it is quite a community.
