This is awesome. All of my favorites are listed here!
I did not now Patrik 1.5 had a woman filmmaker! Wow, that's great! Girl power! :)
And I do regret missing Chef's Special now. But it's coming to DVD. I hope that Watercolors and Night Flyers and Patrik 1.5 come to DVD.
One more thing...never give up with your favorite films coming to DVD. some of you might remember last year's audience favorite, Tru Loved? Well, that movie will be finally be released Jan 26. So don't give up hope! It may take "forever", but they may eventually be released!
I am happy that Patrik 1.5 won. It was a most enjoyable movie, and certainly a real audience pleaser.
I loved it!!
I am pleased to hear Stefan's news that Tru Loved is finally coming to DVD. Another terrific film!
I am so happy to hear that my film Patrik 1,5 won the ImageOut Audience Award, and I must say that the audience seem to have a really good taste. ;-)
When I started working on this movie, the Swedish film industry didn’t believe in it, because it was such a small film. “Ordinary people” didn’t want to see a lovefilm about a gay couple, they said. But we proved them wrong! It was the second most seen Swedish movie on cinemas last year, and now it has been sold to more than sixty countries around the world. Thank you all!
Best wishes and loads of love,
Ella Lemhagen
Director of Patrik 1,5
Thanks for stopping by here Ella and congratulations again! Patrik, Age 1.5 is simply unstoppable! This fall alone, it has also been awarded the Audience Award honors in Southwest (Albuquerque), Pittsburgh, and Mezipatra (Czech Republic) GLBT Film Festivals.
