Notes Behind The Notes
"A crazy tale..."
The Legend of MEXMAN screened last weekend at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. I was hoping to attend in person but my flight was canceled last minute (as in... 9PM the night before a 6AM flight). The window for the trip was so short I would have missed the first screening with no guarantee of making it to the second (or returning from California).
THE RUSSIAN FIVE begins its theatrical rollout this weekend
The Russian Five begins a screening in theaters this weekend, including in Michigan and at AFS Cinema here in Austin. It will begin in 25 theaters and gradually expand from there. As word of mouth travels, hopefully we'll be able to add even more dates and locations throughout the spring, leading up to an eventual digital release.
See the trailer for The Russian Five
Part spy movie, part sports movie, all underdog story, The Russian Five is a fun, twisty and emotional ride featuring a wide range of never before seen archival footage and animated sequences created by Russian artists. It marks the directorial debut for Josh Riehl and I feel so fortunate to have been part of the team as the film's editor.
Recent Screenings of ATLANTIC CITY and THE RUSSIAN FIVE
I'm very proud of our work on "Atlantic City." It's especially cool to see the grit and grain of 16mm film on the screen, big or small. Such an evocative look and texture to match the emotional tones of the narrative.
