Jason's new film project - Searching for Sonny

[moonlight_vixen]

Thanks for the info Lilly!

[allegrita]

I concur. Thanks for doing the hard stuff for us, honey!

[Lilly]

Susie, M_V and Alle -- it's been so much fun following this movie. I kind of feel personally invested now, so I'd probably just ramble on whether or not anyone was listening. But it's nice to know the excitement is shared.


On that note, I want you all to know that I just got a lovely message from a member of the “Searching for Sonny” production crew. He told me that our thread here has been noticed and appreciated. Before they wrapped, he passed on to Jason some of the sentiments that have been expressed here. I’m told that he was “touched.”

[allegrita]

Aww... well, Jason and everyone on the film, we all send you our very best wishes for a rousing success. Thanks so much for sharing the adventure with all of us!

I just have one question about the fact that they read the thread... Did we behave ourselves?

[librarian_7]

Hey, we always behave ourselves around here! Well, pretty much, anyway.

Oh thanks for passing that on to us, Lilly, that's lovely to know that our support was recognised.

dsr - They were originally talking about Spring 2011. A lot will depend on finding a distributor, though. I would expect it will show up at film festivals significantly before that.

So how do we make sure it gets distribution?

[RangerCM]

This really has been an amazing experience. So much fun following this all along the way. So, if for some terrible reason they are never able to get the distributor help they need, is there any chance they could go straight to DVD?

[Lilly]

In a word, yes.

[RangerCM]

Although the big screen would be SO much better!

[Lilly]

Ranger, a lot of what Greg told me when I visited the set led me to believe that we will see this movie. They have some very innovative ideas, and some of it will depend on how the funding goes via Kickstarter, but I have every faith that we'll get to see it one way or another.

[r1015bill]

To put in a tiny plug for the kickstarter part, if you donate $100 you will get a DVD as a thank you.

ETA: AND a "special thanks" credit on the film.

[r1015bill]

Oh yeah! I forgot about that.

My special thanks will be going to "Moonlight Fan". Maybe I should make it plural to include everybody?
