Testimonials

"Thank you Lorenzo, for showing ‘Cautiva’ at the Ventura Film Society. People like you, film lovers, teachers, and some honest distributors (those few ones doing it for the genuine love of cinema and not only the $$), are the ones who keep this film alive."
GASTON BIRABEN – Writer/Director

"Many thanks for the lovely tribute to my films. I thought the audience's reactions to the films were terrific and their questions always intelligent. It was a very moving experience for me."
PAUL MAZURSKY

"What a great time we had in Ventura, Lorenzo. It was a memorable night, special on so many levels. Thank you for bringing all of us together."
GEORGE SEGAL

"The Ventura Film Society is a welcome addition to the cultural arts scene in Ventura. Presentation of independent/alternative films adds another dimension to the already established performing arts as represented by Rubicon Theatre Company, Ventura Music Festival and others including the Museum of Ventura County."
Barbara Meister - Barber Automotive Group

"BIG WORLD COMES TO A SMALL TOWN". Working as a volunteer for the Ventura Film Society has been a very rewarding experience for me. I came away from Festival 2010 with a much-enlarged view of the world and a deeper understanding of some of our most personal feelings and concerns."
MIKE TINE – WAV RESIDENT
