New York takes to GOING DOWN

GOING DOWN opened to full houses at the BAM cinema in Brooklyn, last Friday, May 9. American audiences, got the jokes, got the relationships, and dug the film. The atmosphere in the cinema was palpable. People who hadn't heard about it were surprised and bowled over by what they saw. The bulk of the audience stayed for a Q+A with Director Haydn Keenan who was entertained with stories of adventures in the screentrade and how the film got made.

Box office and attendance were so strong the cinema immediately extended the season. Reviews on letterboxd are highly complementary.

The following night, Saturday, it was a preview screening at the American Cinemateque in Los Angeles which had a similar response. The film was introduced by Director John Hillcoat (The Road, The Proposition) and Colin Hay (Men At Work) and actor Gia Crides were in attendance. We are booked into 17 cities across America, and with the success of New York more bookings are expected. After 40 years, the film still has the energy, the in your face attitudes and soundtrack that resonate with audiences.
