Independent Film at Palace Theater in East Syracuse
SYRACUSE, NY (PRWEB) October 28, 2005 -- This Saturday, October 29 at 2 PM at the Palace Theater on James Street on Eastwood, Syracuse will have a unique opportunity to see a unique independent move the critics are calling, "... a great film, … better than ... the schlock Hollywood has churned out this year." (Dustin Rowles, pajiba.com).
"We know the audience this movie is best-suited for and this is the same audience that would go to The Palace, a truly unique venue for films," said Eric C Lindstrom, the film's producer. "The Palace has a classic feel and we feel we have a classic film."
"Waiting on Alphie" features two main characters, Gus and Alphie. Gus, flown in from Chicago to Buffalo, meets Alphie at an underground café and awaits the order -- which will come via the café's payphone -- on whether to kill Alphie or let him go. The two spend the night in a classic standoff and share barbs, appetizers and stories about "the life." The film’s director, Kevin Hicks, wrote the original screenplay, and has numerous other screenplays to his credit.
Shooting for this film commenced in early April on a sound stage in Ithaca and features Buffalo actors James K. Fulater, Lance Zurek and Matthew Landon. The movie also features Kendall McAdams, Lou Sposito and Keri Szymanski, all from Ithaca. The event is sponsored Immediate Mailing Services.
