News about Loren Cass

Just received this e-mail from Frank Craft, producer of Chris Fuller's Loren Cass, the St. Pete-based film showing at the Locarno International Film Festival in Switzerland this weekend. After the movie's praised screenings at CineVegas, getting a slot in Europe's long-running festival -- and where Jim Jarmusch got his first break with Strangers in Paradise -- is pretty tasty icing for a cake that hasn't finished baking yet.

Take it away, Frank:

Hey Everybody,
Just touching base to let everyone know that we are off to Locarno to show the world what St. Pete filmmakers can do. We have our first screening tomorrow for the press followed by another premier screening for the public on Saturday. If we can get to an internet connection while we're in Switzerland, we will be sure to send some periodic updates...perhaps a picture or two as well.

Chris took off yesterday and will be meeting up with our publicist, anytime now, to drop off the megatons of press materials we have to pass out. We're all pumped about this festival (publicist Gunnar included) and we hope to be bringing home a Golden Leopard (trophy) for all to enjoy!
