FROST NEW YORK PREMIERE

We are happy to announce that FROST will make it's New York debut at the GenArt Film Festival on April 7th.  It is especially exciting for us to be showing FROST here in New York, where we all call home, and where it was filmed.  

We hope to see you there. More info to come so stay tuned.

Back in New York

We're back, after ten days in Park City.  Some of us caught colds.  Some of us caught hangovers. Some of us (Mike Landry) bought cowboy hats (see photo).  All of us had a blast.  Thanks again to Drea Clark and Sarah Diamond, the lovely ladies who run Slamdance.  Thanks to everyone who came to our screenings, especially the truly awesome Jason Behr fans who traveled many miles to be there.  Thanks to everyone who wore a FROST pin or donned a t-shirt.   Thanks to you, Utah, you son-of-a-bitch.

High Five!

Thank you to everyone who came to our screening last night!  It was a great night for all of us who have been a part of FROST family for the past year and the credit goes to our audience at the Treasure Mountain Inn.  They were awesome.  Thank you also to everyone at Slamdance--especially the projectionists and our beloved Drea Clark, who made last night possible.

And we salute Phil Mucci, who's sixties freakout vampire short, "Far Out," opened the screening. 

Singha!

Greetings From Park City

We are here at Slamdance and having an awesome time. Big thanks to Sarah Diamond and the whole Slamdance staff for making us feel so welcome.  We're honored to be in the company of these filmmakers and their films.  We've met so many great people and have been handing out FROST shirts and buttons--including the infamous "I Fucked Frost" button.

Mike "Scotch Evans" Landry has truly found his element here. He reminds of a young Bill Clinton, working every room, restaurant, bar, coffee shop line, street corner and photo shoot we find ourselves  at.  He likes to introduce himself (jokingly, we think) as an "emerging star"...though he might actually be right.  We will have more conclusive evidence when he emerges from the free facial he sweet-talked himself into at breakfast this morning.

We premiere tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. at the Treasure Mountain Inn.  Hope to see you there.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

We had private screenings of the film in New York and LA this week.  It was exciting and a little surreal seeing it on the big screen, finally.  Next stop, Slamdance.  We will turn up in Park City late next week, armed with an array of t-shirts, lapel pins, postcards and posters.  The t-shirts and pins were designed with help from our friend Lily Donaldson and executed by our design wizard, Daniel Cardenas.  Come for the movie.  Stay for the t-shirt. Or the other way around. Whatever works.   Singha.

Korea Loves Jason Behr (and JB loves Korea)

While visiting my family in West Lafayette, Indiana for Christmas I found myself at a local bar around Purdue University and wound up being introduced to a table of students originally from South Korea.  Naturally, as part of our grassroots publicity campaign, I told them about FROST, at which point the table erupted in cheers of "Jason Behr! D-War! Jason Behr Supercool!".  This is because Jason recently starred in a film (D-WAR) which rocked the South Korean box office like a goddamn hurricane.  I had heard rumors of this, but had not seen it first hand until this past week.  I texted Jason who, being the gentlemen that he is, promptly texted a message of "Kumbai!" (the customary Korean toast)  back to our new friends.  The Koreans raised their glasses to Mr. Behr and shouted "Kumbai!" into the night.  I can only guess what Mr. Behr was doing at that exact moment in Los Angeles, but if I had to lay money on it, I would venture to say he was raising a frosty Singha, the Lion of Asia, Thailand's finest, the official beer of FROST, available, by Royal Permission at most fine establishments.

Speaking of toasts, this is perhaps a good time to say a few words about our Assistant Director, Atilla Yucer, the Turkish Prince, an elegant man if there ever was one.  Late one night after a long day of shooting, the Prince taught Steve, Jason and myself the cheer of his homeland over a shared magnum of Krug, the official champagne of FROST.   The word is Turkish is "sherefat" (sp?) which translates quite literally to: Integrity.  

So if you happen upon a handful of gentlemen, stumbling through the snow in Park City, raising bottles of Singha and shouting "Integrity!" up at the mountains, there's a good chance it's us. And if it's not us, we'd like to meet them.

Happy Holidays.
