Sundance Film, Everything's Cool, Has Hudson Valley Premiere at Poughkeepsie Day School
Everything's Cool, a documentary by Poughkeepsie Day School alumnus, Daniel B. Gold, which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival, will have its Hudson Valley premiere at 7pm on Wednesday, March 28th, in the James Earl Jones Theater in Gilkesen Center at Poughkeepsie Day School, Boardman Road, Poughkeepsie, New York. Admission is $4.
In their signature upbeat comedic style, Daniel Gold and Judith Helfand weave an entertaining, character-driven, behind-the-scenes tale about the mother of all problems: global warming. A group of globalwarming messengers/prophets fervently searches for the right language and strategy to propel a reluctant, disaster-fatigued citizenry and its elected officials into action.
Among this cast of characters are a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who repeatedly tries to retire but can't, the Weather Channel's first climatologist with a "global-warming beat" who must pack her Ph.D. into 30-second sound bites, two "bad boys" who aim a radical critique at the environmental movement, and a public servant "whistleblower." Inter-cut throughout this strikingly shot journey are the trials and tribulations of a snow groomer turned biodiesel entrepreneur working on a solution, and the story of an Inuit Alaskan community that must decide whether to stay and risk being washed into the sea or move their entire village. More information about the film may be found at www.everythingscool.org.
Daniel B. Gold won the 2002 Sundance "Excellence in Cinematography Award" for his work on Blue Vinyl, which he co-directed and co-produced. Blue Vinyl was shown on HBO's American Undercover and earned him two Emmy nominations. Films on which he was the director of photography have been shown on PBS, HBO, and A&E, with New Orleans, a two hour American Experience PBS special, and Coma, an HBO special appearing in 2007.
