When Maggie first talked to me about shooting this film, she asked for any names of folks in Colorado who might help out with knowledge and relationships.

In the best Maggie Renzi tradition, a motley crew of folks Sayles and she enjoy hanging out with joined the trip, most of them having at least marginal connections to the film and set responsibilities for the trip. The evening's performers were there, including cast members Mary Kay Place, Michael Murphy, Sal Lopez, and Luis Saguar. I arrived in Santa Fe on Wednesday, just in time to hook up with folks at a luncheon. Cartoonist Tom Tomorrow (Dan Perkins) projected select strips Steve Earle and Kris Kristofferson played songs Sayles and Renzi introduced the film, after which some combination of filmmakers and cast members engaged in a question-and-answer session with the audience. Three nights, three cities, three fundraising events that offered a traveling-show menu rather than just a simple screening. Sayles and Renzi decided the only right way to promote the film was an old-fashioned bus tour, sort of a whistle-stop campaign with booksignings, radio and TV show appearances, music, and the film instead of speeches. Based more than loosely on our own ex-governor, Cooper whose dad (Murphy) is a senator is running for governor, though he sometimes has trouble with the language and offers sound bites more than policies. Shot in Colorado, it's a political satire featuring an all-star cast, including Danny Huston, Richard Dreyfuss, Daryl Hannah, Chris Cooper, Mary Kay Place, Kris Kristofferson, Michael Murphy, Maria Bello, Miguel Ferrer, James Gammon, Tim Roth, Billy Zane, and Thora Birch. This was a bus tour to promote Silver City, John Sayles and Maggie Renzi's new movie.

wait, let me start at the beginning, or at least what might pass for such: We were heading up from Santa Fe to Colorado Springs. Head tilted, eyes rolled back I hope I didn't snore. Not surprisingly, given my narcoleptic tendencies, I fell asleep almost as soon as the bus ride began. The clarifier there is 'usually': Sometimes they work even on rare occasions better than you had ever expected. The best ones are those you tumble into, often not aware that you're undertaking one or sure where you are until you emerge at the other end. Done in by anticipation, any pleasures pale against expectations. The thing about adventures is that usually those you plan fizzle rather than soar.
