Kung-Fu Charisma!

Guess who learned how to add an image to his blog? That’s right, ME! I guess it’s about time. For someone who’s had a blog for the last couple of years, it’s silly how little I know about creating a cool page. For instance, over the holiday, I was wondering why no one was commenting on my blog anymore. Turns out I have to read and accept comments before they appear. Ooops. So I’ve since accepted about a year’s worth of comments. Thanks to everyone who was writing me and sorry for seeming to vanish. But I’m back now, and ready for action!

So how about that poster? I’m thrilled with it. Jieho, the producers, and everyone at THINKFilm did such an amazing job with it. I think it really captures the mood of the film. As for the official trailer, I can tell you that I have seen it and it is so VERY cool. I’ve heard rumors that it’ll be online by next week.

I hope everyone had a great holiday. I got a little treat while I was laid over in the Dallas airport (for THREE HOURS). I was checking out some magazines and thumbed through PASTE and what did I find but a FOUR AND A HALF STAR review for THE AIR I BREATHE! It sees reviewer Sean Edgar LOVED our film. Here’s a quote:

"Brilliant...a cinematic jack-hammer of sound and fury that resonates with enough moral complexity and kung-fu charisma to parade the entire spectrum of human emotion.”

I love the phrase “kung-fu charisma”, so much that I wish I’d written it. Grab a copy of PASTE and check out the full review.

Jieho and I are heading out to Arizona next week to appear at some special AIR screenings, one in Scottsdale and two in Sedona. Here's the link for the events:

If you live nearby, come check it out! It'll be the first time I've seen the film with an audience since Tribeca and I can't wait! See you there!
