Marfa in the spotlight

With No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood both doing well at last night’s Academy Awards, it has drawn attention to the small Texas town where both movies were filmed. Marfa, famous for its lights, art and being the location where the 1950s semi-classic Giant was filmed, was also recently the subject of a flattering wire article.

So now is probably the time to mention that the Hotel Paisano has just completed its series of renovations. According to a recent letter sent to its patrons, this includes the renovation of the pool and the addition of a gym. As if anyone needed an additional reason to visit Marfa. But still, this is a great year for the little town that draws film buffs, filmmakers, paranormal-ists, artists, art collectors and other assorted adventurers.
