"Irish Whiskey"
World Premiere Receives Rave Reviews from Audience!
Here's what moviegoers are saying:
"It reminded
me of the first time I cried at a movie."
"I saw my husband in the lead character—It opened
my eyes and changed my life."
"wonderful performances, l loved it!"
A record crowd stayed on after the World Premiere of Whiskey
to personally meet and talk with writer/director Jon Stevens
and his talented cast and crew. Viewers wanted to know
how they shot such a wonderful film in 22 days on 35mm
film for $28,000 cash! They also wanted to know if it
was a true' story because they saw their own lives being
revealed.
The answer is YES if anyone has dealt with the issues
of alcoholism, bigotry, anger, corruption, racism or intolerance
in their family. The heart of Irish Whiskey is its honest
and courageous script that follows the turbulent lives
of an Irish American family brought together on Thanksgiving
day. We intimately participate in this day of thanks as
it turns into a day of chaos when suppressed feelings
and hidden truths finally erupt. This film opens the door
to the skeletons in the closet and opens our eyes to these
issues that cannot be ignored.
Irish Whiskey is dramatic and humorous. It leads us to
revelations and acceptance through a turbulent and emotional
ride that begins on Thanksgiving Day and ends seven months
later at a double Irish wedding. Join us for the next
ride on January 25' at 12:00pm at Courtyard Theater B.
Experience for yourself what others are raving about.
See Irish Whiskey and meet the people who made the film
a reality!
