Screening Success!

Well, hell. Overall the screening was a smashing success. There were a number of moments where jokes fell flat and others that got huge laughs.

Overall the audience of cast, crew, their dates, a few strangers (a couple professional comedians) really liked the film. We really nailed the ending too. With just the right music and attitude.

I sent off three more copies of the latest edit. One to Slamdance, one to Tromadance and one to a director friend, Noel Black. I met Noel via his website and sent him one of my scripts in 2000.

We'll see what he thinks. He's directed about a half dozen feature films, tons of television and made of TV movies. He's also on the Directors Guild committee of special projects. Whatever the heck that is! But it sounds impressive.

Getting the opinion from an old pro like Noel will be major cool. If I could get him attached to the flick as an executive producer that would rock.

I've been real moody lately, angry, depressed, sad. Been working too much. I just wanna sell my film for a few million bucks (or more) and quit this job. That pays quite well I must say.

I went with my ex to see a flick at the Arclight Cinerama Dome theater on Sunset last night. Saw Around The Bend with Chris Walken. It was better than I though it would be.

We then went to Father's Office for an Alesmith amber ale and an Office Burger, yum yum.

She wanted to go home with me afterwards and sleep together. But I've no interest in her in that regard anymore. I'm bored with her in that area. I look at her and think she's a very attractive woman, but I'm just not interested anymore.

Man, I just hope we can make it to Sundance. If we could get into Sundance, Slamdance, and Tromadance that would be an awesome accomplishment. The film still needs reshoots though.

But in many ways I was amazed I was able to shock members of the audience. People younger than me who I figured can't be shocked at all in this day and age. And just with comic situations and dialogue. Not bursts of violence or sex. Strange.

Ever brightly, ever brightly.
