TV show's 40th anniversary celebrations continue with Tribeca Film Festival opening night selection.

Bao Nguyen, the director of Wednesday’s opening night Tribeca Film Festival documentary Live from New York!, recently moved to Saigon, Vietnam after 12 years in NYC. But he’s back in town this week for the big premiere as well as another event Thursday afternoon at the SoHo Apple Store.
