stoney321Not only am I (evidently) popular in Russia, Italians love my sleaze and have awarded me for it.
By which I mean that Blood on the Highway, in which I play a (sleazy) main character, in which a relative unknown by the name of "Nicholas Brendon" also appears in the film, has won the TOP JURY PRIZE* at the Kimera Film Festival. Guys, it beat out serious documentaries like "Wasted." (I won't lie: I felt a twinge of guilt. But fuck it, they've won awards in other festivals.) It also won the Audience Favorite prize, which is completely cool.
I may be at minute 14, but I'm holding on! We have some kind of physical award coming in the mail. Frakking awesome. See?!?! I TOLD YOU IT WAS FUNNY!!
You like me! You really like me! Ahahahaha.
* means that the judges/critics picked our movie over every single other submission as the best of the festival. I don't know if they're smoking crack over there, or if it really is that damn funny. I'm going with the last one. :D
[ETA] Because I'm Forgetful Jones. If you want to relive the horror of making a horror movie, CLEEEEEK.

Date: 2008-06-04 02:20 am (UTC)Let's see. The next showing is in San Antonio at a festival on the 21rst, then it goes back to Dallas, then to LA in July. I think we've got a Canadian film festival in the works, Chicago, and... Philly? That's just for now, if we can get a good deal on distribution, it'll come to a theater near you and you can witness the Nicholas Brendon glory!

In all seriousness, that is so fanfuckingtastic! I am so thrilled for you, and you won a FUCKING AUDIENCE FAVORITE PRIZE. Dude. Duuuuuuuuude. That's awesome on every level.

Not only did we win the audience prize, we won the GRAND JURY prize. That means out of every single film, the critics liked ours the best! DUDE!!!!!
