If anyone is coming to the area, I have an extra mattress, couch and floor space if needed.

The Academy's celebration of the 40th anniversary of 2001: A Space Odyssey continues with a special "behind the scenes" evening hosted by Douglas Trumbull and Tom Hanks. "2001 in 2008: A Cinematic Odyssey" will feature never-before-seen images and clips from the making of Stanley Kubrick's Academy Award®-winning science fiction masterpiece.
Although Kubrick was somewhat secretive regarding the making of 2001: A Space Odyssey, the Kubrick Archives were recently donated to the University of the Arts in London, and David D. Larson, who has been researching a book on the film's history for the last eight years, gained unprecedented access to the collection. Trumbull aided Larson by identifying and contextualizing many items from the trove of original artwork, memos, call sheets, photographs and other artifacts; highlights of these discoveries will be included in "2001 in 2008."
Complementing the presentation will be a lobby display of actual items used in the film, including a spacesuit, helmets and set elements, all on loan from private collections.
