Bali Salutes Hollywood Filmmakers
Thursday, April 19th, 2007 by ablteamSince the 1930’s Bali has been the premier destination for celebrities and noted personalities who were inspired by the island as a place of sensuality, mystery, romance, and adventure. Bali continues to be an artistic and spiritual haven attracting celebrities, writers, actors and directors from around the world and Bali Film Center (BFC) is inviting those who have this Bali connection to the first ever BALI TAKSU FILM FESTIVAL & AWARDS.
The four-day event to be held on Bali October 25-28 includes a salute to these ‘Ambassadors’ in the international film industry for their continued support of Bali and Indonesia, a retrospective of Bali-themed Films, a Tribute to Indonesian Filmmakers, a Christies Charity Art Auction plus a Celebrity Golf Challenge. In addition, producers and directors will take this opportunity to explore the abundant film location possibilities available throughout the country and discover why Bali first came to the attention of Hollywood through films like Andre Roosevelt‘s (US President Theodore Roosevelt’s nephew), Goona Goona (1932). Goona Goona was originally released in two-color Technicolor and one of the last films released with unsynchronized sound track.
