Win Passes To The LIKE CRAZY Screening In St. Louis – This Thursday!

In his 4 out of 5 stars review of LIKE CRAZY, WAMG writer Jim Batts said the film “is an emotional rollercoaster and a great showcase for two very gifted young actors.” LIKE CRAZY is not so much a love story as a story about what we experience when we’re in love – the excitement, the inspiration, the communion, the angst and the all-out craziness that envelop us, shake us and leave us wondering what on earth just happened to us. Rather than spin another ethereal fairy tale about the ideal of love, director Drake Doremus decided to get down into the dirt with the sheer emotional reality of falling into it –- and then battling to sustain it, especially in a world in which geography, technology and individuality seem to conspire against it at every turn.

WAMG is giving away passes to a screening of this very special film — THURSDAY (11/10) at Plaza Frontenac at 7PM.

Of these 4 choices – Need You, Want You, Love You, Miss You – which would you say is the most powerful…the most emotional…and why?

RANGO, SUPER 8 and LIKE CRAZY Launch First Ever Digital Streaming Program For Awards Contenders

Paramount Teams with Deluxe to Debut Pilot Program Providing “For Your Consideration” Online Screeners to the Visual Effects Society

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Oct. 11, 2011 – Paramount Pictures announced today that it has teamed with Deluxe Entertainment Services Group to provide “For Your Consideration” online screeners for the 2011-2012 awards season, making it the first major studio to stream its awards films online. The studio will present its awards contenders, including RANGO, SUPER 8 and LIKE CRAZY, and potentially additional titles later this season, via Deluxe’s proprietary platform. The Visual Effects Society (VES) will be the first recipient of the online screeners, receiving them as early as October 14th.

The Deluxe solution allows Paramount to securely stream films backed by unique watermarking of the content tied to the individual recipients with DVD quality picture and a controlled window of availability. Content can be played back on a variety of PC and Mac devices, including the iPad and iPad2, as well as home entertainment systems with compatible HDMI cable connection.

“We are excited to present these films for online streaming and are hopeful that this will be a quality experience allowing us to offer more opportunities for our filmmaker partners to reach appreciative viewers,” said Paramount’s President of Domestic Marketing & Distribution Megan Colligan.

“We are delighted Paramount chose Deluxe’s digital screener platform. By continually expanding and customizing our services we are able to best support the rapidly changing needs of our entertainment industry clients,” said Michael Alvarez, President Deluxe Media Management.

“As the leading technology artists in the entertainment industry, we at VES are pleased that Paramount thought to come to us first to inaugurate this process,” said VES Executive Director Eric Roth.

Both Paramount and VES highly encourage films to be seen in the best possible environment – a theatre. Understanding this is not always possible; using Deluxe’s service provides members with an additional method to screen films in a secure and timely manner.
