Actors Lise Hart and Mikhail Blokh and our awards.
My film DEADLY REVISIONS had its world premiere in Los
Angeles last month. It came with great
fanfare: not only was I notified I had
been accepted to the festival, I was informed my film had won two top accolades! Yes, our first film festival and we were
already the proud recipients of the L.A. Movie Awards for Best Narrative
Feature and Best Actor (For Bill Oberst, Jr.).
Not a bad beginning at all.
The festival was hosted by my friend Stephen Tako, a
terrific bonus, as he’s a very gracious, supportive fellow actor. The screening was also the first opportunity
a few cast and crew had to see the film.
Then, of course, there were the awards.
With Bill out of town shooting another film, I ended up with my hands
full. Fortunately, I had the help of the other actors for some of the red
carpet photos as you can see above. The wins have spurned more distributor interest
and it has been an experience to see what has come our way. But I’ll discuss more about that at a later
time.
For now, we’re getting
ready for more festivals. Our New York
premiere is next week at the NYC Independent Film Festival. Then we make our San Diego premiere Halloween
night at the FANtastic Horror Film Festival, where we are nominated for five more
awards. Next up is the Texas premiere in
December at the Twisted Tails Film Festival in Dallas. We’re also official selections of the
Terror Film Festival and the Depth of Field International Film Festival (where
we’ve been nominated for “Best Horror Film”).
So if you’d like
to see the film ahead of any release, grab a ticket to one of the
screenings. And, since festival directors
love when the director is present to talk about the film, it’s my goal to make
an appearance at as many screenings as possible, so look for me and come say
“Hello”.
