My favorite Daryl Hannah character was Elle Driver of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad in Kill Bill, so it was fun to shoot the Friends of the Earth benefit where she, among many others,  was honored.  Also in attendance were Julia Butterfly Hill (shown at right) and her friend Paul Hawken (not shown above).  I’ve loved The Ecology of Commerce
