    Award-winning documentary on iconic actor Val Kilmer debuts at Fisher Theatre

    Sedona Internatonal Film FestivalSedona AZ (August 20, 2021) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of the award-winning documentary “Val” showing Aug. 27-Sept. 2 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    For more than 40 years Val Kilmer — one of Hollywood’s most mercurial and/or misunderstood actors has been documenting his own life and craft through film and video.

    “Val” — a raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary about Val Kilmer — reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.
    “Val” — a raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary about Val Kilmer — reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.

    He has amassed thousands of hours of footage, from 16mm home movies made with his brothers, to time spent in iconic roles for blockbuster movies like “Top Gun”, “The Doors”, “Tombstone”, and “Batman Forever”.

    This raw, wildly original and unflinching documentary reveals a life lived to extremes and a heart-filled, sometimes hilarious look at what it means to be an artist and a complex man.

    In this remarkable and intimate documentary, directors and editors Leo Scott and Ting Poo provide a view into Kilmer’s life through video footage Kilmer — born on the last day of the 1950s — shot beginning in his childhood in Chatsworth, California, and continued through his rise in film and theater.

    In the often decades-old videos, Kilmer reflects on family, lifelong artistic endeavors, the death of his younger brother Wesley in 1977, and his drive to find truth in the illusion of performance.

    As Kilmer captures behind-the-scenes moments during many of his biggest films, including casual moments with friends and costars, in private he wrestles with what acting truly means to him in revealing moments that help make Val a rare glimpse into an artist’s personality and passions.

    Audiences and critics applauding the film and calling it achingly beautiful, incredibly moving and exquisite!

    “Val” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Aug. 27-Sept. 2. Showtimes will be 7 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 27, 28 and 29; and 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Aug. 31, Sept. 1 and 2.

    Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
