More from the Spirit Awards: Filmmakers
Michael Tucker and
Petra Epperlein sport some sunglasses and some cocktails outside before the ceremony began at the
Film Independent Spirit Awards last Saturday. Also basking in the sun were
Netflix's
Liesl Copland and
Toronto doc programmer
Thom Powers. The clouds later rolled in from the Pacific and award attendees noticed the patter of rain on the tent during the broadcast. One person even noticed a leak. Tucker and Epperlein will be at the upcoming
SXSW Film Festival with their latest doc, "
Bulletproof Salesman," screening in competition.
