Shown at the screening are actor David Morse, "Valley" director David Jacobson, BMI composer Peter Salett and BMI's Ray Yee |
Set in present-day in California's San Fernando Valley, the movie (starring Edward Norton, Evan Rachel Wood, David Morse and Rory Culkin) revolves around a delusional man who believes he's a cowboy and the relationship he starts with a rebellious young woman.
Sallet's music, including the songs "Heart of Mine" and "The Way Things Used to Be," can also be heard on the soundtrack to the romantic comedy Keeping the Faith (2000), which also stars Edward Norton.
BMI is proud to be a continuing supporter of the Los Angeles Film Festival, which showcases the best of American and International independent cinema.
