Hennegan Brothers - Film finally out next month
 

Hennegan Brothers, CDI, and Truely Indie combine to release The First Saturday in May next month. Finally!

There is no Lexington KY date yet noted - we don't have the right theatre chains, I guess.

But hey - gives me something to thank Mark Cuban for!

hope they get it released on DVD.:o

People always talk about Cuban. The TB industry needs someone like Cuban.They should try to influnce him to get into the game. Horse ownership, track ownership or just as an advisor on how to promote the sport. He is a the forefront in fan friendly{high end and bluecollar both]. The TB industry needs to learn to be more fan friendly.

Wahoo - tickets to the premier in Louisville went on sale today, will be there!

See the bottom of this press release:

horse owners gone wild
 

the trailer reminded me of girls gone wild

just a bunch of people screaming and yelling

I'll probably buy the DVD.

as of now, the pre-order info isn't up yet

Is anyone on here going to the L'ville premiere? Im taking my mom for her bday got the VIP tix (big spender) and if anyone from here is going let me knw as id love to meet some dters there.

I'll be there, and Chuck & Paula, and LaReason (Ryan, exercises horses for Chuck) will be there, too!

There is nothing currently scheduled for Lexington, KY, but they are working on it apparently. Keeneland is racing, the 2-yr-old in training sale is going on, and Rolex - and the film isn't playing here during those weeks? - has to do with needing an indie theatre to show the film, will have to check blog and see what bandwagon I can call/write.

I wish everyone (writers, websites, etc) would publicize this - here's a horse racing film made for the non-horse racing public - will horse racing take advantage of this available free publicity right before Derby?

Trailer might not do it justice.

I would really recommend buying the DVD. It was a great, and very classy movie. I have watched it twice now, and loved it both times.

Plus, you get to see Byk in action, which is always cool...

I will not be there

Good. Paula and I can scalp your ticket, and buy drinks! ;)

Oaklawn?

No, indifference.

you just don't want to tux up and walk the red carpet?:D

Trailers usually show the best parts of a movie so you'll go see it.
So, if the trailer is a big turn off?

I'm not part of the horse racing industry but I wonder.. if it is for the non-racing public. What will I get out of it? Seabiscuit 2?

:rolleyes:

and that is why we get along :)

A good documentary is a good documentary. If it's well done, it'll be entertaining, regardless of whether the viewer is a racing fan or not.

It's showing at Cinema Village in NYC, on one of their teeny tiny screens. Better than nothing. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

2 negatives is a positive

I'll wait until Andy reviews it before I watch.
