Documentary on Randy Couture wins film award
“Fighter,” a documentary featuring Gresham resident Randy Couture, received the Best Documentary award at the 2006 Foundation for the Advancement of Independent Films International Film Festival awards gala.
The film premiered Friday, Oct. 6, at the world famous Mann’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood, Calif.
The documentary looks back to capture a slice of sports history as Randy “The Natural” Couture chases his first Ultimate Fighting World Championship Belt. The film travels deep into Couture’s world and focuses on the man who is now considered the personification of everything good about this sport.
Shot by award-winning filmmaker Pericles Lewnes, “Fighter” provides myriad perspectives while taking an honest look inside the minds of mixed martial arts fighters.

Sen. Laurie Monnes Anderson accepted an award Tuesday, Oct. 17, as one of the “Best Friends of Oregon’s Elders” at a luncheon sponsored by the Oregon Alliance of Senior and Health Services.
Rep. Karen Minnis of Wood Village will also receive the award.
Oregon Alliance honored 11 legislators from across the state that have demonstrated exemplary leadership on behalf of older citizens, said Cathleen Sullivan, Oregon Alliance president.
