The New Guggenheims Are Here!
The list of 2009 Guggenheim Fellows (press released here) was released today and there were many filmmakers on the rise.
Amongst my faves are Ramin Bahrani, Julia Loktev, and Kelly Reichardt... but I am sure that others would be on that list if I knew more of their work... which, hopefully, these grants will make possible.
