Hennegan Brothers Derby Film

[Riot]

but in the grand scheme of the movie business, this movie sadly has little chance....at least in theaters.

Sure, I realize that, I suppose. I'm just comparing it to some of the other mindless (and immediately to DVD) crap that graces the local theatre screens every week.

I guess I'm just surprised that there are no CA owners within the film industry willing to find a token spot for it in one of their lesser distribution companies, in order to help out the sport.

How much do you know about the movie business?

I don't know a lot but I know enough to know that, unfortunately, this movie is a very hard sell.

Then again, Jake Romans is bigger than life.

Fun after-dinner activity, that's it.

Seriously, I figured some owner in the horse business would want to pick up this orphan and do a favor for the sport. I know why the big studios wouldn't touch it.

I hear it's playing at the 2010 Anchorage International Film Festival. I can't wait!!

I think the only place it will be seen regulary is the Derby Musuem. It may become a standard there. And like BTW says it's nothing against the connections, just a no win situation financially. Good luck to them though, they were cool people, alot of fun hanging out with them at Aqueduct...

Their problem is that they are east coast guys, and the "friend of the friends" are all west coast.

what would it take to put it on dvd and sell it from there?

this movie has got to be better than the majority of the crap that makes into theaters.
