Seventeen screenings all around the world and out of those, six prestigious awards!!!!! I applaud <a href="http://jongustafsson.com/">Jon Gustafsson</a>, his documentary starring <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/gerard-butler/index.html">Gerard Butler </a>has earned him well deserved accolades and has brought him a sizable fan base. The sales for the DVD have been great with only 60 of the Canadian/USA version let. But don’t worry… more are on the way, so if you haven’t gotten yours yet more will be available soon. <a href="http://jongustafsson.wordpress.com/">Jon Gustafsson </a>worked some powerful magic when he captured the unbelievable story behind the filming of Bewoulf and Grendel and it cast a spell over Gerard Butler fans and film enthusiasts every where. For me, the passion will never die and the enthusiasm will never dim about Wrath of Gods, it stands out heads above the rest, a documentary that captured the dreams and hopes of a production where filmmakers, cast, and crew refused to give up and the best part… there is so much to come!!!!!! Film schools are going to love this documentary. I watched it transform from beginning to end, from a vision, to a dream, to a masterpiece… so as the song says…”start spreading the news.”<br />Be sure and check it out!!!!!!! <a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/">http</a><a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/"></a><a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/">://www.wrathofgods.com</a></div>blondesquawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16062960332152543874noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134910315508259365.post-47762191473804439252008-04-11T18:24:00.000-07:002011-01-30T18:50:23.542-08:00California (Hollywood) and Washington DC!!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG4XjLlCE_u7-hX9hHud0_smS8b8bFrsTm2U6iQFx5-sruzE3f56yCki4wqEqerA5L5iholJQ8uU5bBJeRRSv26jjZQOFQC4EsDOFgMsaE1sMCovMdu3UIUBzacTE-TfKzA1vmQb4W0nBB/s1600/l_0e6e91d50b5d63f63be1d6e587cb328b.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568176384239063554" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiG4XjLlCE_u7-hX9hHud0_smS8b8bFrsTm2U6iQFx5-sruzE3f56yCki4wqEqerA5L5iholJQ8uU5bBJeRRSv26jjZQOFQC4EsDOFgMsaE1sMCovMdu3UIUBzacTE-TfKzA1vmQb4W0nBB/s320/l_0e6e91d50b5d63f63be1d6e587cb328b.jpg" /></a> What a good memory!<br /><div><div><div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifawRYrFbYG3ithnYl1w-Kv78zKM3C_7p91YZdVjbWzBmMkba4zxYMc-infSQOJqr9tW6e00FN47weLKoA7aO4xjgNrCi-tHItYYRLSLXogz5jhWmoBXwAxs9zupI7gblJnrZASG3RnEXH/s1600-h/!cid_016801c89cd7%24e009a7d0%24DAA1FC79%40YOURF75255574D.jpg"></a></p><br /><a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; DISPLAY: block; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5188171142570255314" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdIMPG6Htzd8_hl9tozCSIP154-fKrOTbVYYB73kHR6hB6ZG_qchB6wB7JsnYz7pBf-TvXjsJjd6y9N3eunnlGoIuE7GNr9uRs0l2p4U6D9H4wj7andnCUhznEqGUq6Ewo9ZTfMDlSQJVG/s320/l_ab637a58bffa4eeefd5cb3f9385ed602.jpg" /></a><br />WOW!!!! March and April had <a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>buzzing. Jon and that fantastic documentary that I love raving about left Iceland and arrived in LA for a screening at CUT!2008 on the 29th of March. And, guess what.. I arrived there too!!!!! Talk about an exciting weekend. A great crowd attended the showing what an appreciation they had for the doc. Jon and a couple of his friends from Bewoulf and Grendel, actors Tony Curran and Martin Dalaney set the Q&A panel and was it ever fantastic! the guys were loaded with humor and kept the audience in stitches. What was I doing... I was sitting on that front row beaming like a beacon and enjoying every single minute. I can't tell you how excited I was... Jon came down to the front of the theater and gave me a big hug and then he got the crowd going with that Icelandic wit and humor and then the film began. I don't think anyone noticed, well my friend sitting next to me probably did, but I had a couple of big tears that surfaced when that doc started to roll. You just can't have that much passion for something and respect for someone and not get emotional. They were those kind of tears that puddle and then find their way down your cheeks really slow. They were really happy tears. Everytime I watch tht documentary I am so proud of and for <a href="http://jongustafsson.com/">Jon Gustafsson</a>, take a bow Jon!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />Well if Hollywood wasn't exciting enough, Wrath and Jon took off for Washingotn DC where two screenings took place to the merriment and appreciation of the attendees at the Gerard Butler fan (GB.NET) Charity Convention. Between the two events Jon Gustafsson took a lot of pictures with a lot of girls and he signed tons of autographs. Yeah, its a hard job, but hey somebody has to do it. LOL<br /><br />***** I met some so nice people in LA and met up with a few I had met when I attended the Bewoulf and Grendel premiere a couple years before. I had so much fun!!!!!! </div></div></div>blondesquawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16062960332152543874noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134910315508259365.post-64223231962239047272008-02-15T15:45:00.000-08:002008-08-04T16:24:29.404-07:00BRADFORD INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL...

I believed 100% and put all the power of postive thinking I could muster</div><br /><div>into it. I helped all that I could, and made a right pest of myself asking and asking if it was ready yet. And, now that I sit back and see the success <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>has had and how it has</div><br /><div>traveled all around the world and won awards and I have to tell you I am just beaming!!!!

She had hoped that <a href="http://jongustafsson.com/">Jon Gustasson</a> would be attending the festival hoping to get to meet him and ask some questions. He didn't make it but she none the less attended and reported that the fellow at the ticket window said that of all the movies he had seen at the festival that Wrath was by far the very best. This tickled her to know end and when she reported to Jon not only how much she loved his Wrath but what the fellow had said... he was really quite happy and pleased. I think he said something like it put a huge smile on his face.. LOL </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>The next stop for <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>was Long Island. Stony Brook Film Festival. On the 25th of July Jon went to New York and attended the screening. His wrath showed to a room of close to 1000 viewers. He had a great question and answer session and as always everyone loved the documentary. A couple of days later at the closing nigt ceremony Wrath of Gods earned Jon the horored Jury Award- For filmmaking!!!! Pretty impressive right? Attending the festival with Jon was Karolina Lewicka . </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>On August 5th <a href="http://wrathofofgods.wordpress.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>showed once again at the Napa Sonoma Film Festival. Jon in attendance once more. Well to say he is on a roll would be appropriate right now.. yes... once again his documentary has won an award. The " best documentary feature --shot with digital"</div><br /><br /><div>YIPPIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It just keeps getting better and better!!!!!!!</div><br /><br /><div>To date wrath has brought home the Audience Award from OIFF ; the Remie from World Fest; The Jury from Stony Brook; and the Best Documentary Feature from Sonoma!!!!!</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>CONGRATULATIONS Jon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</div><br /><br /><div>I have to say that I couldn't be happier for Jon. These honors are so deserved and I am </div><br /><br /><div>so pleased that he is getting recognition for his documentary. I know how hard he has worked on this film, and how much dirt the seed of this film had to dig through to sprout and bloom..</div><br /><br /><div>And did it ever bloom. </div><br /><br /><div>I have to really believe in something to give my heart and passion to it. </div><br /><br /><div>Well it is pretty obvious to me that I chose pretty well with this one....</div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Take a bow <a href="http://jongustafsson.wordpress.com/">Jon Gustafsson </a>. It is your time to shine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</div></div>blondesquawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16062960332152543874noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134910315508259365.post-91361670758468184372007-06-19T12:56:00.000-07:002008-08-04T16:09:08.635-07:00Waterfront Film Festival....<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNFeyBZWDVu1nKSficpf74sdEVWalisCAAMVWqr_B3vzLnn1f6lUqtytl5cg7lfpCAK9CtAAyxI8Z68sjHiollbuDUJlM0tqCtrXwkp_G7SgO5sJw2cEfxwjxYgica7K5oHB4IxrZP4_3W/s1600-h/photo-25.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077873253415031410" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNFeyBZWDVu1nKSficpf74sdEVWalisCAAMVWqr_B3vzLnn1f6lUqtytl5cg7lfpCAK9CtAAyxI8Z68sjHiollbuDUJlM0tqCtrXwkp_G7SgO5sJw2cEfxwjxYgica7K5oHB4IxrZP4_3W/s320/photo-25.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://wrathofgods.wordpress.com/">Wrath of Gods</a> made another great impression at the Waterfront Film Festival in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Saugatuck</span></span>, Michigan. The sounds <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">absolutely</span> beautiful. They transform everything into a theater..<br />There were two great screenings and the director, <a href="http://jongustafsson.wordpress.com/">Jon <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Gustafsson</span></span></a> had great question and answer sessions one lasting over an hour.<br />I continue to spread the word over the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Internet</span> about this great documentary that is taking<br />the festivals on its magic ride. The DVD is being sold all over the world available in all regions .<br />You ask...<br />What drew you to this film???<br />I remember seeing the very first clips that Jon had on the official <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Beowulf</span> and Grendel site and<br />enjoying bits of interviews that he would put on . I really enjoyed them. Then I saw a clip that Jon showed me and said he planned <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">to</span> put all of this great stuff together and make a documentary. Perhaps it was Iceland and its captivating beauty, well that drew me, but it was the passion that this film maker held for his work that I saw. Some how I saw how wonderful his dream was and I experienced the magic and was spellbound. All along the way as I saw a new clip I couldn't wait for it to be done.. I guess you can <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">call</span> me an online volunteer promoter, that is if a title is required. I love this film , I love talking about it, and I believe in it, and I believe in Jon <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Gustafsson</span>. He is an excellent film maker who has produced an exceptional piece of work, I wouldn't have missed any of this for the world. If you <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">haven't</span> checked out wrath of Gods and you want to see for yourself what a great film it is... go to <a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/">http://www.wrathofgods.com/</a> but let me warn you.... its addicting!!!!!!<br /><br />Next stop....

There are some very satisfied customers out there. The general theme is that the it is fantastic!! I love reading the comments about the documentary at <a href="http://www.wrathofgods.com/">http://www.wrathofgods.com/</a> clearly the three hours of entertainment this DVD delivers are some kind of wonderful!!!!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I had seen many clips of this documentary along the way, watched the CBC broadcast, and I had volunteered my services (production assistance things like transcribing interviews etc..) to promote Wrath of Gods and spread the word and help out in any way that I could. I knew that <a href="http://jongustafsson.com/">Jon <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Gustafsson</span> </a>had created something very special and rare. An award winning documentary with depth and substance that anyone anywhere would find interesting and entertaining whether or not they had been fans of <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/gerard-butler/index.html">Gerard Butler </a>or Beowulf and Grendel. To see something in its completed form that you have so much passion for and have given a great deal of your time and energy to fills you with emotion. I watched the documentary in awe of the cast and crew of B&G as they faced obstacle after obstacle and set back after set back . It's the story of a dream that refuses to give up, and in that process it becomes <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">every one's</span> dream involved. This documentary is far more than a making of a movie film, it is the fulfilling of a dream against every obstacle that finances and the the power of nature could fling at them. It is both funny and intense; how could you not appreciate B&G and all involved after seeing what they went through. Wrath of Gods teaches us all that if you want something bad enough you can stand up to most powerful forces and succeed. </div><br /><div>Jon <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Gustafsson's</span> talents as a film maker are outstanding, I tip my hat to him for capturing it all on film and telling the story that was begging to be told. From beginning to the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">final</span> credits this DVD is a fantastic example of movie making at it s best!!!!!!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>.......... next stop for Wrath of Gods...

But <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>caught my interest and worked its way into my heart. It is a pretty cool thing watching something like this develope. It is the most exciting thing I have ever <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLGiAtVoURMTc_0W3UbWpGM_qGS4acmGFE6AZFlgDHLlRaxEUrzezi-mgAHLw2CRKzsEibWF3ZXuUo5BsmxjOS1mK4FUfGDv5dzoEeDQ69hNDe0BT_C3SB1VUAR3WXOTgX63sGARzhWxZO/s1600-h/picture-of-dvd_thumbnail.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5073215941203104306" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 96px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 89px" height="89" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLGiAtVoURMTc_0W3UbWpGM_qGS4acmGFE6AZFlgDHLlRaxEUrzezi-mgAHLw2CRKzsEibWF3ZXuUo5BsmxjOS1mK4FUfGDv5dzoEeDQ69hNDe0BT_C3SB1VUAR3WXOTgX63sGARzhWxZO/s200/picture-of-dvd_thumbnail.jpg" width="89" border="0" /></a>been a part of. I tip my hat to <a href="http://jongustafsson.com/">Jon Gustafsson</a>, he produced one fantastic film here and the amazing thing is that </div><br /><br /><div>it was shot on an old MiniDV camera. But, you would never know it, the picture quality and sound in this DVD is superb. I think that the story of a man and an old MiniDV camera capturing an unbelievable story about remarkable people would make a great documentary too. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>Speaking of the DVD... </div><br /><br /><div>If the many waiting for the shipping of the DVD to start weren't already going bonkers, Jon tells everyone that the shipping will be a few more days delayed because the laurels from the OIFF Audience Award were being added to the cover design and printing would take a little longer. Well more than a few moans and groans were heard around the world, but no one seemed to mind when they saw just how beautiful the cover was going to be. In fact the moans turned awes, and the anticipation level was turned up a notch or two. To make it all even harder to bear, Jon also showed us the silk screening on the DVD, and it was clearly obvious to everyone that this was something worth waiting for.</div><br /><div>well.. take a look ... just beautiful!!!!!!</div>blondesquawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16062960332152543874noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134910315508259365.post-37883649460183854102007-06-06T21:46:00.000-07:002008-08-04T16:03:21.663-07:00waiting.....<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix6cIyWfBHIhQfsZ5T4_xUu2jf-YnJkFO7iesNQgWvul21Dzi0HuRU3GlRlcvEkOuwTT80CxybOSE8HL4fQMTaoNNjK_4pEE5Z-vcPJQKWbV7-R91lq9n2cEtqn4dt3q5ozZHxxWjB3iTv/s1600-h/hremi-award.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5073195282410410514" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 37px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 94px" height="94" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix6cIyWfBHIhQfsZ5T4_xUu2jf-YnJkFO7iesNQgWvul21Dzi0HuRU3GlRlcvEkOuwTT80CxybOSE8HL4fQMTaoNNjK_4pEE5Z-vcPJQKWbV7-R91lq9n2cEtqn4dt3q5ozZHxxWjB3iTv/s200/hremi-award.jpg" width="77" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRat9BYmwb77LDRIoHQyUgrsTrpeK7CKLAtENfAT1Qpp1VvZ2MNnVkg3I1aQdFbO-2lVo1CGSCaOOCYXs3uk5-8la19APMBpatevi7UotSRvSUoN1OnbR32bELOoHIQP1Xrbr2vqr6GFUv/s1600-h/!cid_006701c784e7%24366ca4b0%24A88C24AD%40YOURF75255574D.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5073194444891787778" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 202px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 195px" height="238" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRat9BYmwb77LDRIoHQyUgrsTrpeK7CKLAtENfAT1Qpp1VvZ2MNnVkg3I1aQdFbO-2lVo1CGSCaOOCYXs3uk5-8la19APMBpatevi7UotSRvSUoN1OnbR32bELOoHIQP1Xrbr2vqr6GFUv/s320/!cid_006701c784e7%24366ca4b0%24A88C24AD%40YOURF75255574D.jpg" width="236" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>To say that winning the Audience Award at OIFF created excitement for and about <a href="http://wrathofgods.com/">Wrath of Gods </a>is an understatement.
