Only the second day of February and we're already lining up panelists for the 2009 Conference, October 22-25. Doug Ellin, "Entourage" creator/writer, and Gina Prince-Bythewood (I've invited her FOUR years in a row), writer/director of "The Secret Life of Bees" and one of my favorites, "Love & Basketball," have accepted our invitations and will be here in October.
Check out this LA Times profile on Ellin discussing plans for fifth season and tackling what he calls the "biggest thing about Hollywood," its extreme seesaw nature:
