The Smoking Cocktail would like to congratulate all the winners at Outfest Awards Night last night.A special nod out to friend Dave O Brien and Nicole Bilderback, whose work and creative endeavors I've followed for a while. These kudos are well deserved and long over due! Also to HAMLET 2 and Andy Flemming - great work! I can't wait to see that film again when it opens in theatres in August.
Nicole won for her complex yet understated performance in THE NEW TWENTY as a woman whose only fault is being smarter and more successful than all the men around her.
Dave won for the documentary EQUALITY U.
Caroline Coal won for her documentary about the LA Gay and Lesbian Elder Housing: A PLACE TO LIVE.
I will post all the other winners once Outfest posts them! Meanwhile, here are some photos from Brian Putnam.
