MPI co-founder Thor Halvorssen makes celebratory remarks at the 20th Anniversary Gala.
Twenty years ago, when Thor Halvorssen and I created MPI, we had a lot of hopes and dreams. They have come true over the years and were truly celebrated at the 20th Anniversary Celebration this past October in Los Angeles. There is nothing more magical than celebrating a dream come true with a Hollywood extravaganza. MPI’s 20th anniversary Hollywood commemoration filled us with awe about the fabulous creations of Hollywood—and the joy of knowing that MPI is now a part of this incredibly influential industry . It was wonderful meeting so many young—and young-ish—MPI filmmakers who are making ‘Hollywood’-worthy films that celebrate liberty and the greatness of American entrepreneurship . Thank you to MPI for a truly wonderful few days and for impacting the film industry.
