Some responses form the film last night.....

Begin forwarded message:

> The Huffington Post today
> "One of the most important films of the year (perhaps decade).....   
> The Age of Stupid represents the future of film, film culture and  
> film distribution and marketing. Filmmakers need to realize that  
> getting your film in front of an audience is at least half of their  
> job as filmmakers. The filmmakers behind The Age of Stupid get it.  
> They get it to the nth degree and it is exciting. They are blazing a  
> trail for filmmakers to not only release their films in their home  
> countries, but around the world. We are on the verge of a new dawn,  
> where fans support the films they want to see and where those films  
> can create a worldwide theatrical release without studio support.  
> You should go see this film not because I feel it is a great film (I  
> haven't seen it yet!) but because you will be participating in the  
> rebirth of film culture." -
