More at http://californiatypewritermovie.com/ . Saw it last night at the Sie Film Center in Denver.

We also had the film-maker, the two store employees and Tom Hanks there to intro & do Q&A after. (edit: I'm not 100% sure about Hanks. That same week I ran one of the premiere screenings of SULLY and I know he was at that one, and I THINK I recall him making a surprise appearance for the typewriter movie, since he was still 'in town', he's in it and he is is a manual typewriter aficionado. )  |  IP: Logged Sam D.

I drive by that actual typewriter place all the time. Great story!  |  IP: Logged
