East Coast Movie Premiere

The East Coast premiere of Fighting for Freedom, produced by and starring Kristanna Loken, along with Bruce Dern, will take place next Thursday, September 12, at Fairview Cinema 3. The movie, which was originally called Love Orchard, was filmed at Love Apple Farm in Ghent and at the Columbia County Courthouse in Hudson.

The premiere is a special screening to benefit Fairview Cinema 3 and kick off a campaign to raise money to equip two of the theater's screening rooms with DCI compliant digital projectors and sound systems--necessary if Fairview Cinema 3 is to survive. The benefit event begins at 7 p.m. with a Mexican wine and tequila tasting, accompanied by bocaditas, at neighboring Fairview Wines & Spirits. Following the tasting, the film will be shown at the theater, almost right next door, at 8 p.m. The donation requested--for the tasting and the screening--is $30 for individuals or $50 for couples.

Lance Wheeler has created a video to promote the movie premiere, which can be viewed here.
