Jake's Corner opened in theaters in Arizona this Friday. I had a great week. Wednesday I went to the town of Jake's Corner. I little place in the middle of nowhere, but surrounded by mountains. We screened the movie for the town and everyone who involved on an outside screen, and I have never seen so many people so excited to see a movie. I was a great experience. People applauded and hollered and yelled in excitement under a perfect star-filled sky. BJ Thomas and the Hay Boys played afterward and the whole town lit up with celebration. Very Cool!
To the left is a picture of my boss and the writer/director/producer of the film, Jeff Santo. Jasmine is on the right (Jazz) and her and I work in the office together. Fun fun fun friend I found Jazz. She's a sweetheart and Jeff and Hollywood really appreciate all the work we do for them around the office. Hollywood is the other gentlemen in the next picture. He's a bigger than life kinda guy and I have a such a great time working in this business.
Thursday was the big Red Carpet Event for Jake's Corner here in Scottsdale. I got all dressed up in a fancy dress! Besides the awkward tan lines, I looked alright. And I wore mom's earrings...thanks mom! It was a great event. Lots of press, lots of people, lots of smiles....It's a great joy to see a creative project come together so perfectly.
David Della Rocco is an actor from the movie, and happens to be in one of my all time favorite cult classics "The Boondock Saints." Great guy, very funny, and Jazz, Crissy and I had a so much fun at the afterparty on Thursday night.
Below is the who gang. Richard Tyson, actor and star of the film, Renee (Hollywoods wife) and me hiding in the back, then Hollywood, Jeff Santo, Jazz and our other producer Tim Comstock.
Hopefully, I'll recieve more pictures. I was so busy and too excited to shoot anything myself, so I'll post more later. Hope everyone is well! I'm missing you all. I'm jealous mom and Jenna get to have mom and daughter time and not me :(
Love you all!
