Frozen-Concentrated Celebrities At Sundance Part 2 Malin Ackerman & Banksy



One of the celebrities I saw around most was Malin Ackerman. At one point a large crowd gathered while she and Katie Holmes were inside getting photos taken. Everyone was pronouncing her name different ways, so I asked her publicist what was the correct pronunciation while she was on a cigarette break. (It's 'MALL-in' as in "Ballin' with Malin") So when Malin finally came out, I had everyone yell "MAAAALLLIN" with the pronunciation right, and it had the desired effect, making Ms. Ackerman smile and laugh for my camera! (Actually my partner got the shot above, but I got the laugh!)

On our first drive around Park City I noticed a Banksy painting on the side of a coffee shop on Main Street of a man videotaping himself plucking a flower. Banksy was in town supporting a documentary about him, and apparently left a few gifts behind. I later found another one on Hebert Street. I heard there were a total of 5 around the city, but one had been painted over immediately because it was on a historic building. The coffee shop had theirs covered in protective plexiglass after someone had smeared something on it.

About Item9

HOLLYWOOD, 2009: Dangerous and deadly car chases. Drug-fueled starlets refusing to wear underpants. D-listers begging to be photographed. Beefy bouncers with headsets and no brains. Lap dances in the gutter. Has-beens stealing your kush.

Everyone had a story, and most of them were working on a script based on that story. The landscape had changed, and what had once been a glamorous and dreamy boulevard was now a dark and seedy underground of hanger-ons and fame junkies.

That's where I came in. I could say I did it for the money, but that would make me a liar just like the rest of them. The truth is I was drawn to it. Like an accident on the side of the road. I didn't want to look, but my camera guided me, daring me not to ignore my destiny.
