ANNAPOLIS! Indie Film Screening: NEW YORK LATELY.

2010-02-08 · Screening

On SATURDAY, February 13th, The Annapolis Pretentious Film Society is proud to present Director Gary King's critically acclaimed independent feature NEW YORK LATELY


The Annapolis Pretentious Film Society is very proud to have such a highly regarded film as NEW YORK LATELY as a part of our ongoing independent film screening series.We are fortunate not only because we have the honor of seeing the film in such a intimate and comfortable setting as the Rams Head On Stage, but New York Writer/Director Gary King will be in attendance with two of the films stars -- Jenn Dees and Mark DiConzo (see below) from his stellar ensemble cast.

This will also be the first Saturday Matinee for our series with the doors opening at 12 Noon and the screening at 12:30. An audience Q&A will begin immediately following the screening. We are excited as this gives indie film fans a weekend opportunity to see what our series is all about. 

And what better film to screen on the day before Valentine's Day, than NEW YORK LATELY...
NEW YORK LATELY is a feature film drama following multiple characters as they weave through their daily lives struggling to find happiness. However, happiness to each of them is defined differently.

Using New York as the backdrop, writer/director Gary King interweaves several unrelated tales into a larger tapestry that not only pulls viewers into these intimate day-to-day lives, but also draws on those interactions to show how we are not all that different from each other.

Here's what critics are saying about NEW YORK LATELY:

“…director Gary King brings out some strong performances from a talented cast.” — OXFORD FILM FREAK

“…an absolutely wonderful piece of work.” — ROGUE CINEMA

“…an original, funny and poignant slice of New York City” — FILM ARCADE

“…breathtaking and emotionally powerful…” — TCWREVIEWS

“…smart, lively and engaging…” — SONIC CINEMA

“I never thought that watching relationships fail could be so heartwarming.” — PULPMOVIES

“…Gary King breaks back into the independent scene with his best
work to date….entertaining from title to credits…” — KILLER FILM

I am also personally pleased that Gary King and his wife Susie will be here to not only to experience the great audience at our screenings and the beauty and hospitality of the city of Annapolis (Especially our sponsors), but it is just going to be good to see them again after spending time with them at the 2009 FLYWAY FILM FESTIVAL in Pepin, Wisconsin.  Here is a picture of me, Gary, and his wife Susie, INK filmmakers Jamin and Kiowa Winans, and INK star Quinn Hunchar at FLYWAY. (The photo is taken by my wife and co-founder Lisa DeLucia Lewnes.) Gary is the nicest and one of the most accessible guys I know in the indie film scene and he is certainly a talented rising star. I look forward to introducing him to you at our event. I am sure that the NEW YORK LATELY actors Jenn Dees and Mark DiConzo will be be just as wonderful.


This will be a fun, one-of-a-kind event and I look forward to seeing you there.

Cheers,

Pericles Lewnes
