The entertainment industry rolled out a little bit of Hollywood to Capitol Hill on Wednesday showcasing exhibits, stars, producers and technical artists to deliver a message that the movie industry is far more than the stars who walk down the red carpet.
At the three-hour “Beyond the Red Carpet” reception sponsored by the House’s Creative Rights Caucus and held in the House Cannon Office Building that drew 32 congressmen, “Dallas” stars Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray, and “Breaking Bad” actor R.J. Mitte, joined industry executives in a series of forums.
Among the execs: producer and former Producers Guild president Hawk Koch, showrunner Dawn Prestwich, Weinstein Co.
