The feature length movie Unspoken by Daryl Denner was accepted into the International Film Festival Manhattan for 2020.
Again, I've had great luck with the team at the IFFM. Unspoken is the second movie I'm in to make this year's festival.
Our pre-production discussions of Unspoken, included a deliberate attempt to integrate the imagery and feelings of living in New York City. As in many of the movies about the city that we've admired, we wanted to convey New York as an integral and active personality to the story. Being recognized by New York City metro area festivals feels like we were able to connect those ideas.
As a reminder, the festival has gone completely virtual for 2020. The dates of the festival are November 19th -22nd.
As I've stated in a previous post, the IFFM website explains:
We are visionaries who believes in the possibilities of New York, the greatest city in the world. We have seen how film, as a powerful medium can make a direct impact on lives or facilitate change. We also have seen the unique diversity of New York's culture and its people. The city's appreciation for film and ability to make things happen. IFFM is committed in showcasing entertaining and diverse films in all genres and scope to equal the diversity of New York. It is also committed in exploring all opportunities to promote the artists, his work, his vision, and his cause if he has any, during the showing of the films and the events during the festival.
Check the Festival webstie for more information.
In even more IFFM news, my co-star Brian Pollock won this year's festival award for Junior Lifetime Achievement. Brian is a skilled and generous actor, a good friend and all around great guy. I couldn't be happier for him and very appreciative to have worked in Unspoken with him.
Congratulations to Daryl, Rodney, and to the cast and crew for picking up another laurel for this labor of love!
