Liberty Kid trailer :: Film now playing at Pioneer Theater, NYC

Read about the film Liberty Kid (official website) at GreenCine Daily; lots of links to follow there.

Film is playing at everyone's favorite indie film theater in NYC, Pioneer.

A few quotes:

CRITIC'S PICK:
"There's not a single wrong note in “"Liberty Kid,"...

Tender, wise and deceptively low-key... Quietly accumulates emotional power...
Not until the graceful, perfectly judged conclusion do we realize how much we care."

NEW YORK TIMES

CRITIC'S PICK
"Chaiken's subtle narrative touch, along with the exceptionally strong performances of
leads Al Thompson and Kareem Savinon, gives this one a rare emotional pull."

NEW YORK MAGAZINE

"the least explicit yet most affecting film yet to depict New York
in the weeks and months after the towers fell."

NEW YORK SUN

"An uncommonly acute, deftly played drama of the New York working class"
Nathan Lee, VILLAGE VOICE

"Epic and resonant… to her eternal credit, Chaiken keeps her movie grounded in her characters, allowing Thompson and Savinon's true-to-life performances to carry us through…"
Bilge Ebiri, NERVE

"a powerful drama... Chaiken works with a delicate touch... potent, thoroughly believable... deeply poignant"
Stephen Farber, HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

Mike Tully (presently inactive filmmaker who is not a fan of shooting on DV, who is now running things - as far as I know - at the review site Hammer to Nail, who also blogs at indieWIRE, & who wrote a brief & positive review of Date Number One in '06, & a fellow Marylander who generally seems like a cool dude) attended the World Premiere of Indie Film Blogger Road Trip and wrote a review of the doc . There are several items in that review that I'd like to comment on. So here we go: "At its best, Sujewa Ekanayake’s Indie Film Blogger Road Trip is certain to go down as one of the more bizarre time capsules of life on early-21st Century Earth." Cool - life on Earth in early 21st century - right now - is pretty bizarre, so a film dealing with a new, early-21st Century thing like film blogging/a film blogging community, should reflect that reality. The doc, however, is very simple & conventional in its form & content (shots of people talking). It is i
