Pearl

Hear ye, Hear ye! For the month of September through mid October our short film "Pearl" starring Frannie Sternhagen and myself will be accessible on the New England online Film Festival (info below). It's been getting a lot of play at festivals and Richard and I are very proud of it. Richard produced it and I directed and adapted it from a Ted Kooser poem (US poet laureate 2204-2006 and Pulitzer Prize winner). Take a look see and pass on the good word.

By the way, Pearl, though set in Iowa, was shot a year ago this past April in Newbury, VT, and Piermont and Woodsville, NH.

The following from the head of the festival:

Now's the time to start telling your family, your friends, your co-workers, your Facebook fans, and your Twitter followers to check out http://www.newenglandfilm.com/festival, where they can watch your films from September 1 through October 15.

This year we are offering two awards in each of our festival's genre categories:
Audience Award: Given to the film in each category with the most views from Sept 1-30.
Jury Prize: Given to the film in each category selected by the NewEnglandFilm.com staff.
