A WALK INTO THE SEA - Opens in Theaters on Friday
Well, opens in a theater on Friday. Like, one (the Cinema Village in Manhattan).
The distributor's strategy (Arthouse Films) is to release the film small, spend as little as possible and see how it goes before opening in a few more major cities. And I think it's a smart one.
The whole idea with theatrical these days is to somehow make a blip on the public and industry radar without losing your shirt. A tough proposition when 13 other films are opening in NY on the same day.
So, we're taking our chances on getting great reviews (which has been the trend) and beseeching our NYC-area friends and colleagues to please, please, PRETTY PLEASE come out to see it on the big screen this first weekend.
Esther and I, along with much of the rest of the production team (and probably some of the Factory gang, as well) will be at the 7:20pm showing on Friday. Hope to see you there, too. But if not, do us (and yourself) a favor and catch one of the other shows this weekend. You won't regret it, I promise you.
A Walk Into the Sea: Danny Williams and the Warhol Factory - Directed by Esther Robinson. Showtimes: 1:25, 3:20, 5:20, 7:20, 9:20 daily. At the Cinema Village: 22 E. 12 St, NYC.
