CROWD MANAGEMENT
Congrats to Filmmaker Managing Editor Matt Ross for the successful reading of his screenplay Plays Well with Others at Tom Noonan’s Paradise Theater this past Wednesday night. The reading, which featured Cynthia Nixon, Sonia Braga, Tom Gilroy, Dean Wareham and others, was the first in a series sponsored by the Hamptons International Film Festival.

Oh well, next time, Matt…
