Not much more to say. Pretty cool though.

Wow! Friday night, CHILDREN OF GOD opened to a packed theater at the Quad Cinemas in New York City! It was a great night. The movie was warmly received and the after party at MARY QUEEN OF SCOTTS was insane. I still need time to recuperate.

So tonight CHILDREN OF GOD opens at the Quad Cinemas here in NYC. This is my first film in an actual theater so I’m pretty excited. BET is hosting the 7:00 screening and OUT Magazine is hosting the 9:35 showing. If you haven’t seen it, please come down town and check it out.

So we finally got the release date for CHILDREN OF GOD. TLA Releasing will release the film on May 20, 2011 for a limited run. It will open in New York City at the Quad Theater. This is very exciting. It’s my first film in theaters. If anyone hasn’t seen it yet (or even if you have), please run down to the theater opening week and get a ticket.

Check out the trailer for CHILDREN OF GOD from our German distributor.  It looks so good I want to watch it again.  Watch it HERE.

BET Network has chosen CHILDREN OF GOD as one of the top ten films of 2010.  This comes on the heels of the movie winning thirteen awards internationally and getting distribution in over eleven countries.  The film’s US and UK distributor TLA, is slated to release the movie this March in theaters.

I didn’t see this coming but it’s very cool.

CHILDREN OF GOD sold out 2 screenings at this years OUTFEST in LA.  The screening on Friday sparked a heated debate with the audience leading the moderator to say in all his years at OUTFEST, he never saw anything like it.  Pretty crazy but cool when your film makes people talk…or yell.

After 2 sold out screenings, we won the audience award for best feature.  This is exciting to say the least. It’s the film”s 4th award but it’s New York City!  This is the Children of God team at the Q&A.

After two sold out screenings at this years NEWFEST Film Festival, CHILDREN OF GOD won the audience award for Best Narrative Feature Film.  This is the fourth award the movie has garnered in the past two months.  Next stop is Frameline in San Francisco and then off to OUTFEST in LA.

The second screening of CHILDREN OF GOD here in New York sold out on Thursday.  The audience loved it and we all headed to Highlands for the after party.  Things got a little crazy. That’s editor Maria Cataldo, director Kareem Mortimer and actor Johnny Ferro at the reception before the screening.

Monday night CHILDREN OF GOD screened at Harlem Stage on Screen as a part of this years NEWFEST.  The screening was sold out and the crowd loved it.  About 95% of the audience stayed for the Q & A afterward.  After that, they threw a party for the film.  We had a blast.

Sunday, May 16, 2010 CHILDREN OF GOD screened at the Museum of Fine Art in conjunction with the Boston LGBT Film Festival.  The house was packed and the crowd seemed to love it.

I’m psyched that Children of God has been chosen as the opening night film for the Bahamas International Film Festival.  The screening is Friday, Dec 11 with a party afterward.  It’s pretty prestigious but I honestly just want to get out of New York.  Should be a great night.

CHILDREN OF GOD has been chosen as the opening night film for the Bahamas International Film Festival.  The film which will have it’s world premiere on Friday Dec 11 will be followed by a post screening gala.

Check out this sneak peek of the movie I produced in the Bahamas.  It’s finally complete.  We are signing with a pretty cool producer’s rep so keep your fingers crossed.  Hope you like it.
