SBMS Teen Press

MONTECITO AWARD

JEFFREY WRIGHT

It's Thursday, February 14th, and the 9th night the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Tonight is the Montecito Award, which "recognizes an individual who gave the performance of their career in film this past year". And the individual being recognized is JEFFREY WRIGHT, from the film "American Fiction".

On the red carpet tonight are TEEN PRESS reporters EMMA & MAX, who get to interact with a bushel of filmmakers, and the honoree himself!

After spending time on State Street with fans, and then with the SBIFF interviewer, there was little time for the reporters at the end of the red carpet. Banding together, all the student groups were allowed to ask one question...
