This past weekend Los Angeles was a buzz with some of Hollywood’s best and brightest being honored with awards shows across the city.

Saturday night the IFC Films + Sundance Selects’ Spirit Awards had artists and creators celebrating a year’s good work at Santa Monica’s 41 Ocean Club. Among the films nominated were Certain Women, Kiki, The Childhood of a Leader plus the 2017 releases of American Fable, Wolves, Personal Shopper, I Daniel Blake, Graduation, Queen of the Desert, Chuck, Citizen Jane: The Battle For the City, Wakefield, The Trip to Spain, The Journey, Band Aid, and 78/52.

Those involved were excited to let loose Saturday and converse with creative colleagues. Besides a beautiful venue with a sunset perfect beach view, there were plenty of guests stealing the spotlight from their surroundings. Guests included:

 

Director Alexandre O. Philippe

Actress Sophia Takal

Actress Yvette Yates

Actor John Hawkes

Catfish Producer and Creator Nev Schulman with Laura Perlongo

Actress Natalie Morales

Editor Joi McMillon

Actress Paola Nunez

Actress Mickey Sumner with Chris Kantrowitz

Director Ira Sachs

Actress Zoe Lister-Jones

 

Actress Jess Weixler

Director Taika Waititi

Actor Brady Corbet

Director Ezra Edelman

Co-Presidents of IFC Films Jonathan Sehring; and Lisa Schwartz

Peet’s Coffee and Hendrick’s Gin sponsored the party, giving the attendees plenty to sip and sample. Energy was renewed with the help of a Peet’s Coffee bar and Hendrick’s was used in delicious specialty cocktails. The party was such a success that it was extended for an extra hour before the crowd dispersed to other after parties or to get some much-needed rest after all of the excitement and, of course, to start preparing for next year.
