Baby Boomerang was shown Saturday, January 24, 2009 at 12:00 pm (noon) at the SCERA Center for the Arts in Orem, Utah to a crowd of about 300 people.  No awards were given at the festival for any of the feature films (I guess they just don’t like to judge others), but the audience response was very positive.

Mark was deathly sick at the time.  He had lost most of his voice and was coughing so much he actually passed out during another film as he was trying to exit so as to not disturb anyone.  When he passed out, he face-planted into the carpet and causing a large rug burn on his forehead for the rest of the festival (Mark has retouched all the photos and removed the evidence).

At the screening of Baby Boomerang, Mark, Camille, and Anna Arnett answered questions from the audience and then held a reception in the lobby.

“I want to thank everyone who came or sent people to the screening.  It meant a lot to me to have a theater that felt full.  I was very pleased to have so many people attend.  I was even more pleased when the audience laughed and cried in all the right places.  What more could one ask from a film.”
