Our very own "Universal Remote" was selected Best Comedy Feature at the Hollywood HD Film Festival in Los Angeles Yesterday. The HHDFF is the premiere showcase for films shot in the digital format.
The March 29th screening broke the festival attendance record with an SRO audience of 200 plus. Some 40 or more people were turned away at the door. If you were one of those people, we apologize but you can't be on FEMA time.
The audience response was fantastic with people generally agreeing that we made an edgy, smart and funny movie that plays no favorites and takes no prisoners.
There were unconfirmed reports that at least three people busted a gut and one person shot diet coke through his nose while laughing.
There will be another screening soon for buyers so anyone who didn't get to see the film will have another chance.
Also, our film and it's animated short "That Darn Jesus" were selected for the ReelHart Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto, Canada.
Thank you all again-- and "Gladiator" to you all.
Gary Hardwick - Director
