The 1st Screening - A huge success

Tonight was the 1st screening at Clermont-Ferrand for Glenn Owen Dodds.  We were the last film to play in our line-up and we played to an almost sold out cinema at the Petit Velo. What a response!!!! The audience loved it. We were the only film to get big laughs and the comedy in the film translated very well. We also received the biggest round of applause.  We are so excited.  Can't wait to see what tomorrow's response is.  Tomorrow we play in the 1400 seat theatre, the Cocteau, in the same line up again. We will upload a video blog tomorrow after the screening.
