directed by Abigail Steinberg LISTEN TO THE PODCAST INTERVIEW on this film with the filmmaker! Falling in love isn’t easy. Staying in love can be hard. Opening your heart can be painful. During a romantic candlelit dinner, David and Catherine get more than they bargained for when a little honesty goes seriously wrong. Originally played on the ON THE LOT TV show. CLICK HERE and Watch the Audience Comments Video when it played at the WILDsound Film Festival CLICK HERE to submit your Short or Feature Film Showcasing two different genres in separate halves caused an interesting reaction with the audience. This was our 20th month using the FEEDBACK session and it was by far the quietest month we've ever had. The audience just wasn't in the mood to talk about the films after they saw them. No one really wants to hear JUDGMENT. It comes from a negative place, plus it's so easy to do. Someone making bold judgments about someone else's work really isn't that productive. The filmmaker really doesn't gain anything from it and the audience and online watchers of these video don't either. What we try to do is always give honest evaluations of the films that are screened. Mainly how the audience and moderator were emotionally effected by the films that were screened. Sometimes certain moments in a particular film doesn't work, which leads to a great discussion to why it didn't. Then creativity happens all around the cinema as people want to chime in on whether they agree or disagree. But the trick is for our MODERATOR to keep that creative line moving and for the evening to not go into that negative place. There have been some magical moments in some of these 19 feedback sessions and everyone goes away feeling good. They were entertained, inspired and possibility learned a thing or two. Especially the filmmaker. It's our job to always make each night as magical as this month. LOVE ROYALE |
