A rumor suggests that Jason’s family will be flying to California to watch his performance. And since Michael’s MySpace status (from 16 hours ago) says he is “packing and then off to the airport”, I suspect that he will be attending the Santa Barbara International Festival to support his brother.
So if you are anywhere near Santa Barbara, or if you live faaarrrr away, but has the means and the time, why not attend the Festival? Not only will you be able to watch Jason perform his FULL version of the lovely Hallelujah, you might just have the chance to see “the” Michael Castro up close and personal.
And wait, there’s more!
The luminous Kate Winslet will be at the festival on the same day to receive the Montecito Award. The awarding ceremony will be in a different theater (Arlington), but hey, if you try hard enough, star sighting is not improbable.
The event which runs January 22 to February 1, 2009, will be honoring the great Clint Eastwood on the 29th. Kristin Scott Thomas, Penelope Cruz and comeback king Mickey Rourke, will also be receiving special awards.
Movie festivals like this are always fun and interesting. There are different programs and activities all day long and if you buy a special cinema pass, you can watch all the movies you like. Sometimes the package even includes access to the gala on the first day and the awards ceremony on the final night of the festival.
