Packing the street, the house, and also the Red Carpet were enthusiastic fans and also many actors involved in the epic western film getting its American premiere, "HORIZON: An American Saga, Chapter 2". Headlining the film folk was KEVIN COSTNER, whose brainchild the film is, as well as actors LUKE WILSON and Santa Barbara Middle School classmate GEORGIA McPHAIL, among many others. Teen Press reporters LAUREN & MAYA were on the busy Red Carpet, aided in their efforts by Georgia!

A happy benefit of knowing someone in the cast of the film (GEORGIA McPHAIL) was that she could call over other actors to be interviewed. MAYA & LAUREN get to talk with LUKE WILSON and ALEJANDRO EDDA, as well as say hi to "The Boss" KEVIN COSTNER when he stopped by for a cameo.
One of the highlights of the night for reporters LAUREN & MAYA was the chance to interview Santa Barbara Middle School classmate and actor GEORGIA McPHAIL, who was walking the red carpet for the premiere!

Teen Press reporters LAUREN & MAYA got to hear from actor STEFANIA BARR about her experiences in "HORIZON", as well as her career.
Actor JACKIE NICO spoke with MAYA & LAUREN on the red carpet for "HORIZON: An American Saga, Part 2". She also enthused about SBIFF, and shared some of her acting history...and a first-time-shared story about her entree into HORIZON. And a homework assignment!
It was almost time to go into the theater to view the premiere, but before leaving the red carpet, LAUREN & MAYA wanted to interview "mohawk man". DANNY PEYKOFF was willing to speak with them, and turned out to be an Executive Producer of the film!
A key part of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival is the granting of awards to films in different categories. For that, the festival counts on the expertise of its jurors to evaluate the movies. Here LAUREN & MAYA get to quiz SBIFF Juror SHAWN PATTERSON about films in general and for specific recommendations, as well as his interest in the medium.
