War Eagle this Friday

Let me reiterate, it is very important that we get everyone we know to go out and see War Eagle. It’s in limited release right now and whether it gets a wider release or not depends on how well it does in select cities. Sadly film distribution and exhibition is a numbers game and no matter how much awards or critical praise the film gets, only box office receipts will determine its destiny. 

With the recent Film Incentives Bill passing it is crucial that every film from Arkansas get ample publicity and success. The success of films like War Eagle and Slumberland (2009 Made in Arkansas Winner) will be a catalyst for the film industry in Arkansas. If War Eagle becomes a success then other distributors and production companies would be more likely to set up shop here or invest in local films. 
So again I urge everyone to get everyone they know and go see War Eagle this Friday and see it multiple times if possible. The economy is bad, but movies provide a great escape and War Eagle is a wonderful film and great story to escape into.

Herb and Dorothy doc sees release soon

Among the news of fellow LRFF alumni War Eagle getting distribution we have news of another theatrical exhibition with Herb and Dorothy, the lovely documentary about “the extraordinary story of Herbert Vogel, a postal worker, and Dorothy Vogel, a librarian, who managed to build one of the most important contemporary art collections in history with very modest means.” 


Herb and Dorothy which received two packed-house screenings at the 2009 Little Rock Film Festival will now show in New York City, Friday June 5th at the  Beekman Theatre and Cinema Village. 


According to their website more screenings are coming to other major cities throughout the U.S.

We are very pleased to have been selected by the producers to handle the theatrical and home video release of this film festival favorite. There is tremendous enthusiasm throughout the state of Arkansas, due to local themes and locations, and we feel that our theatrical expansion will benefit from this platform launch.
