The film capital is at our backdoor, and the beauty of that scenery is that it’s not limited to works by and about Americans.
City of Lights-City of Angels (COL-COA), which celebrated the 14th annual Week of French Film Premieres in Hollywood is a case in point. With 28 new feature films and 20 new shorts in the competition, this year’s  COL-COA showcases French cinema’s ability to constantly reinvent itself.

Thank You

I want to say thank you for what you’ve done
and all the times that we had fun
and all the times u stayed up late
and the lovely times u made me shake
and when you came to visit me
to save me from my misery
and also for a love so good
that I foolishly never understood
I miss the love that we once shared
but its my fault your no longer here
and now that its all said and done
I have to let your spirit run
and thanks for that talk today
it really helped me pave the way
