SALAD DAYS Montauk Movie Premiere. The best night ever!
What an incredible night! Over 150 adults and kids showed up for the Movie Premiere of Salad Days. I showed two other Montauk films — Captain Jacks Family Jewels and One hundred miles to Montauk. The two young stars of the film also shot and edited movies to show. Local grom Chase Lieder showed a new surf edit shot over this summer in Montauk and local pro snowboarder, skater, surfer Noah Avallone showed a snowboarding cut from his winter season. We had a mountain of free pizza and my darling friend Colin baked 100 brownies for the kids, because it was also my birthday! After the films, Colin (Jost of SNL fame) and I co-hosted a Q&A with my two superstars. I had prepped the questions with them and they did a pretty good job coming up with some great answers. Colin compared me to Kim Jong-un which everybody thought was spot on. The event was so popular we did the whole thing twice, last-minute adding a second showing. I don’t want to boast but it was the best event of the summer.
Thanks to Hero Beach Club for the venue — Best Pizza for the pizzas — Ryan King for the audio/visual help — Colin Jost for being an ok co-host.
