Thanks to Oakland International Film Festival
We had a great time at the 10th Oakland International Film Festival and feel blessed to have been a part of such a special event. We screened Saturday morning and it was an awesome feeling to see our film make it’s big screen debut. And to top it off, the crowd laughed! At the right parts, of course.
Plus, the event gave us an excuse to get the cast and crew back together. Some of us headed to The Trappist for celebratory beers afterwards. Thank you to to those who came out and to those who called, text’d, emailed with well wishes.
Peralta News put together a great recap of the festival. Take a look at the of quality projects showcased this year.
Thank you to the Oakland Film Society and Director David Roach for allowing us to participate in the festival!
Sly Sylvester Featured in Oakland North
The 10th Oakland International Film Festival kicked off yesterday! We were able to catch a handful of movies throughout the day and plan to do the same over the next two days.
Sly Sylvester makes its world premiere this morning at the festival at 11:30 am!
Karmah Elmusa of the online news site Oakland North generously included Sly Sylvester in her preview for this weekend’s festival. She spoke with writer and producer Kim Nunley about the script and about shooting in Oakland. Karmah particularly loved Jay Krohnengold’s performance!
The landlord, played by Jay Krohnengold, is certainly a highlight of the film, and an easily identifiable cinematic archetype. With his pitbull-esque aggression and a no-nonsense attitude, he quickly establishes himself as our hero’s foil, there to mess up not only his financial life but his valiant attempts to woo the cat sitter. Will love conquer all? Check it out at 11:30 Saturday morning at the Oakland Museum of California to find out.
Thank you to Karmah for the piece! Check out the entire article via Oakland North.
