UTAH　（ユタ州）コミュのWhiTe on Rice Dave Boyle

映画 WhiTe on Rice とても面白おかしかったので皆さんにも御紹介しておきます。　Utah州がDave Boyle監督の地元となので彼の作品はユタを中心に撮影されそのお陰でユタ州放映が行われています。　十分なお客さんが来てくれる間のみ放映と言う事ですのでご家族、お友達さそいあって是非映画館に足を運ばれてみて下さい。　私の意見としては日本映画というかアメリカ・日本映画でアレだけ笑わせてもらったのはあまり記憶に無いです。　製作費の少ない作品と言う事ですが、出来栄えは素晴らしかったと思います。　殆んど日本語でしたから英語が分らない方でも十分楽しめるし、日本語の分らない方も英語の字幕がありました。　では、彼のこれからの活躍を期待して、御協力お願いします。　　主役は硫黄島からの手紙で活躍した渡辺ヒロシさんです。　ポスター（HPアドレスあり）を掲載しておきます。 http://whiteonricethemovie.com/main.html 夢到来

Cast members Hiroshi Watanabe, Justin Kwong and I will do special Q and A appearances over the weekend at select showings:

PROVO: Friday at 6:45 show and 9:00, Saturday at 11:55 and 2:10

SALT LAKE CITY: Saturday at 7:15 and 9:30

This week, keep an ear (and an eye) out for us at special events at the U of U (Tues 1:00pm at the Film dept.) UVU (Thurs. 3:00 pm) and BYU (Fri 3:00pm in JFSB B192D) as well as on TV on "Good Things Utah" (Wednesday at 10:00am on ABC 4) and on the radio on 101.9 throughout the week.

I can't emphasize enough that opening weekend is so important for a film like ours that is being distributed outside of the mainstream system. So give us a whirl this weekend, and you won't be disappointed. I'd bet the 85 minutes you spend with "Rice" will be the best 85 minutes of your whole week.

Thanks, and I'll see you at the movies,

Dave
