The 27 Club

[biff]

it's playing at the tribeca film festival.

Again? It played there a year ago.

This film is, sadly, in limbo.

 

[Carek1230]

What's the deal, no one wants to put up the bucks to distribute it?

 

[bella88]

Its a shame it came to this

 

[Carek1230]

I know it! At least release it on dvd so that others of us who really want to see it can see it! I have even e-mailed them on the movie's website asking them about this. They are evasive, keep saying to look for film shows near me (there aren't any!)

 

[lauramullen]

This is sad. I really want to see this movie

 

[Carek1230]

I do too, really really badly.

 

[biff]

It seems the film still has a bit of a pulse: It won Best Director at the Savannah Film Festival, Best Narrative Feature at the Ojai Film Festival and Best Indy Spirit and Best Actor at Fort Lauderdale Film Festival. At the Honolulu International Film Festival it won the Grand Jury Prize. It's next slated for the Milan International Film Festival on May 11–May 19, 2009, where it's nominated for Best Actor (Joe Anderson), Best Director (Erica Dunton), Best Screenwriting (Erica Dunton), Best Cinematography (Stephen Thompson), Best Editing (Les Butler, Oliver Bugge-Coutté). It's also scheduled for the Newport Beach Film Festival Apr 23–Apr 30, 2009.

You've fooled Karen again by bumping this thread.

But that's good news!

[Carek1230]

You beat me to it Liz.....and I am fooled but like the news nonetheless. Glad to hear about all the nominations and awards the film has gotten. I am close enough to see it in Newport Beach, unfortunately I can't make it till one of the last days. Or do I wait till it hopefully makes it out in natiowide release or better yet DVD release? Decisions...decisions.....thanks for the news biff!

[rihannsu]

tribeca.

Can it show again at Tribeca? I don't know anything about how film festivals work but since it opened at Tribeca last year would it be eligible to show again this year?

Dana

 

[Carek1230]

That is a good question and one I also wonder about.

 

[biff]

It is definitely NOT showing at Tribeca this year, according to the film's own website.

 

[lauramullen]

I didn't think it was.

No, the info wasn't wrong. It said Tribeca 2008. The site wasn't fucked, just past its prime. No big deal, and no need to apologize.
