There is such excitement going on around Connie now. She just called to tell me that her film,

Saving Grace B. Jones

won 1st place

in the New York Film Festival!

Best director Connie Stevens
Best actress: Tatum O'Neal
Best supporting actress: Penelope Ann Miller

This fantastic movie will be distributed this fall by New Films International. If it makes it to a theatre near you, please do yourself a huge favor and go see it.

Congratulations, my friend.

Congratulations to Ms. Stevens!

That's wonderful! Heartfelt congratulations to her!

[LarryB]

That's marvelous news. I've no doubt that it's a just reward for a job well done. I'm very pleased for her.

I understand that she wrote and produced, in addition to directing.

I'll be listening to one or two of her albums tomorrow by way of celebration.

There's a pre-release post here along with a link to an LA Times review and a little history behind the making of the movie.

This is really exciting! I'm really happy for her! And, as Nancy said, if you have a chance to see it, don't miss it.

I watched the trailer a while back and it looks really good.

Congratulations, Connie!

Congratulations to Connie! Gee, Cricket Blake, my second crush (as a young boy), right after Annette Funicello! I used to be so jealous of Kookie. She could have had my comb, anytime!

[Gregory]

I think that's a wonderful honor. Congratulations to Connie and her hard work on the film.
