I felt like I was talking to an actor from the Sorpranos!<\/p>\n<p>Paul was a lot of fun with his New York attitude and telling stories about how his film came together, working with his cast and crew. He is doing a great job of promoting and marketing his film, something that every filmmaker needs to pay attention to. There is more product then ever out there, and if you&#8217;re going to stand out, you have to put in the time. We get into that a little and Alessi offers up some websites.<\/p>\n<p>The F. Gary Grey story (Grey directing credits include: &#8220;Be Cool&#8221; &#8220;The Negotiator&#8221; &amp; &#8220;The Italian Job&#8221;) alone is worth watching the interview. But lots of other great material including how he auditioned for and got on the CBS reality show &#8220;The Amazing Race&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Knuckle Draggers is still on the festival circuit; and, it will be closing the Real Heart Festival in Toronto this Saturday. I&#8217;ll announce on the message boards when it&#8217;s going to be released. I&#8217;m looking forward to it.
