Snaps from Sundance

Aaron Kemp, the founder of Aaron’s Tent and JCafeLA, was tracking down the Jewish angles in Park City, Utah this past week at the Sundance Film Festival. Here’s a pictorial sneak peak at Aaron’s first guest blogging gig with The Calendar Girls:
“The photo is with Jacqueline Bisset, former ‘Bond Girl’ and star of the 1977 film, ‘The Deep’ for which Newsweek magazine labeled her the ‘most beautiful film actress of all time.’ This was taken at an after-party of the poignant post-holocaust movie ‘Death in Love,’ starring Ms. Bisset. ‘Death in Love’ is a story about a Jewish woman’s forced love affair with a Nazi doctor in a concentration camp and its effect on the lives of her sons many years later.”
Much more to come, including video clips, from our Sundance correspondent…
