The Omaha Festival was great! Made some great contacts and had fun. The crowds were a little thin but the audience for STARBUCKING was fair. It was very well recieved!
The Sonoma Valley Film Festival was fantastic! STARBUCKING played to a sold out crowd opening night and a nearly full audience on Saturday morning. Comments were extremely positive!
One bay area critic called Starbucking one of the few "great" films at Sonoma! Here's the review:
STARBUCKING At least as entertaining as Supersize Me without its didactic quality, this odyssey with a guy whose goal in life is to sample all of the 1600 or so Starbucks worldwide is 21st century road trip film par excellence as well as a wacky Zen spiritual journey we are invited to participate in up close and almost too personally! Its bright and wild protagonist is a winner, as are the insights and outlooks he experiences throughout this caffeine-fueled documentary.

STARBUCKING played here on Saturday. Awesome venue!
Here's the welcome basket I found waiting for me in the hotel room. Fancy!
The crowd begins to line up before the show on opening night.
