Tribeca Film Festival: Day One

Day one at the Tribeca Film Festival was eventful to say the least. Our group got in to our lovely accommodations at the Howard Johnson in New Jersey just fine. The movie selection was a little slim so some of the group decided to just attend one screening. We decided to see Thieves by Law, a documentary about the Russian mafia. I will have a full review of that later. Had an interesting Q & A after the screening.
We walked around the city a bit. Went to the Strand bookstore, visited a Thrift shop, and got very lost. All in all not a bad day. A very good start. I look forward to the rest of the festival. Tomorrow we will be attending the Beach Lane pilot taping. Possibly seeing a movie before then, maybe Lola. There is also a talk being given about the future of film distribution that seems interesting.
