Josh and Matt do their best “Clint Eastwood”

The WBD team just got back from the Carmel Art & Film Festival in breathtaking Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. With crisp, sunny weather, waves crashing on silky sand beaches under smooth golden-brown cliffs and lush green lawns punctuated by crooked Cypress trees it was a cruel place indeed to lure filmmakers who rarely leave their edit caves and to then ask them to stay indoors and watch more films! Yet we powered through, enjoying the stunning landscapes, perfect weekend weather, and of course the incredible selection of films screening at the festival. We’re honored to be in such good company – check out the stellar lineup!:

A sincere thanks to everyone who came out for the WBD screening! And a special shout-out to future film director Roman and his awesome parents who drove him out from Dallas to see our movie – here’s to supporting art and dreams!

But fear not, if you’re in NYC and you want a chance to see the film you’re in luck:

We’re also screening as part of the Astoria/LIC Film Festival, this Saturday at 12:30PM. Tickets are $10, and available here.

We received more great news early this AM, that WBD has been accepted into the Carmel Art and Film Festival in Carmel California. It’s a beautiful town, and a great place for the WBD crew to kick back for a week. The festival is from October 12-16th, we don’t have a screening time yet…but it will be posted here once we get a chance.

Maybe we can finally talk Clint Eastwood into starring in the sequel where Miles escapes from his retirement community for one last adventure with his little brother!

We just got great news that WBD will be playing in the LIC/Astoria Int’l Film Festival, which runs Oct 14-16th. So for anyone who had to miss our NYC premiere due to the torrential downpour, now’s your chance to see the film on the big screen!

We’re still waiting to hear which night our film will show, so check back for more information.
