In case you missed it, have a look at CNN's The Original Paparazzo segment, including Ron's interview with Brooke Anderson at Gallery Mar in Park City.

Our sincerest condolences go out to the friends and family of the original "King of Paparazzi", Felice Quinto, who passed away this January 16th.

We here at RGHQ are all grateful for having witnessed the result of Felice's vision, which helped pave the way for artists like Ron. He will truly be missed.

 Well, Smash His Camera has packed audiences at both of its screenings, so Sundance has lined up a few additional showings this week. There's one tonight, 1/27, at 11:30pm at the Library Center Theatre, and another on Friday, 1/29, at 3:30pm at the Holiday Village Cinema II—both in Park City. If you have yet to see it, and are still in town for the festival, grab your tickets now at the theaters' box offices.

Today we have another terrific piece about Smash by the venerable Roger Ebert up at the Chicago Sun-Times, as well as posts by The Vancouver Sun, AFP, and the Park Record.

Here we see Ron getting a taste of his own medicine upon his arrival in Park City—journalists Carl Moczydlowsky and Brandon Joseph Baker ambushed him at the baggage claim to shoot  photos and talk a little bit about the film. Click through for the take and Carl's story.

We've also found video of the opening day press conference (via Ustream.tv), at which Robert Redford, one of Ron's favorite subjects and founder of the Sundance Insitute, talks at length about Ron and a run-in they had while Redford was filming Three Days of the Condor in New York (around the 35 minute mark).

In other news, The Daily Beast has posted an interview with Ron about the King of Pop and Ron's newest title, Man in the Mirror: Michael Jackson. Click through for Ron's thoughts on Michael and a slideshow of pictures from the book, which is available now through PowerHouse Books. If you're in Brooklyn tonight, stop by PowerHouse Arena between 7–9pm for the launch party, where Ron will be on hand to sign copies of both Man in the Mirror and Viva l'Italia!

Ron and Betty are somewhere over Nebraska right about now making their way back home to good old New Jersey, and you know there's going to be pictures, so stay tuned for a glimpse at Sundance Film Festival through the lens of Ron Galella. In the meantime, click through for a review of Smash His Camera by Eric Kohn of indieWIRE.

Good Monday, everyone. We're pleased to say that Smash His Camera has been very well received at Sundance. Thank you to everyone for your support, and congratulations again to Leon, Adam, Linda, Doug, and the crew.

Today, Vanity Fair, IFC, and Entertainment Weekly all have coverage of the film; plus, we get a look behind the scenes at SFF with Ron courtesy of Brad Elterman/BuzzFoto.com, and an inside interview with Ron and Leon by The View From Here TV (via YouTube).

Join famed paparazzo Ron Galella to celebrate the launch of his two new books. Man in the Mirror is a tribute to the life and memory of Michael Jackson that features shots ranging from his early days in the Jackson 5 up to the weeks before his untimely death. In Viva l'Italia Galella presents rare portraits of Italy's most famous sons and daughters. In honor of the exhibitions starring subject, the Arena will exclusively be playing the King of Pop all night. Refreshments will be provided compliments of Bear Flag.
