This evening I was fortunate enough to attend the 2011 Melbourne International Film Festival media launch. A look at some of the wonderful feature films, documentaries and shorts scheduled for the festival was only part of the fun though - and I will be discussing the guide in much more details in the days to come! MIFF patron and Melbourne/Australian/acting icon Geoffrey Rush was on hand to give a wonderful speech about how it feels to share a 60th birthday with the festival. Rush is a master at droll wit and knows how to get an audience on side even through a speech that he knows most people don't particularly care for.
At one point they wheeled out a delicious looking cake for him and, thankfully, we got to have a slice during the post-launch mingling. When I pulled an Oliver and asked for more they gave me a giant chunk that I stowed away under my wing and took home. If you ever wanted to know what Geoffrey Rush's birthday cake looked like, here it is!
I shall be devouring it soon!
