Argh that's an absolute bummer
Hi Guys,
It's been a while, but I have returned for a little encore
.
Do not despair. Though no distribution deal has been signed yet we are in some very, very exciting talks. Obviously, any and all statements regarding this could only hurt at the moment. So I have to be a pain and not say anymore. Festival submissions had to be pushed back a bit due to some technical delays. After our short break to catch our breath all that has now started moving again.
We just had the cast and crew screening on the 9th at BAFTA in London. I doubt a film will get an audience much more enthusiastic than the guys that made it, but most of the crew was indeed pleasantly surprised by the quality of the final product. There were laughs where we needed them and quite some tears at the end as well. All in all a very promising big screen debut.
One person on the credits in particular liked the film....Philip Pullman. He has said that he enjoyed the film and was impressed by Duncan and Jess (Chris and Jenny). The BAFTA members in attendance were also positive as well as some agents present for cast and crew members. And agents aren't easily impressed...
So no, we are no where near desperate...
(Indie) Films just take a long time to get absolutely right and then another long time to get to a local cinema near you...
Cheers!
