Great. Do you have it all or just this? It was a really good film and it would still make a good film today. Wow.

Great stuff! Funny and well-done, film-wise. Definitely not medium-rare or half-baked.

Great job Peter!

David,
Are you fucking kidding me? Masterpiece fucking theater? The music is pretty damn good but everything else blows. My dead grandmother could direct a better film than this. In fact, if you have funding I might dig her up.
Thanks for sharing Peter:)

Damn, Mel, I thought I was channeling your grandmother when I did it. Besides, the money spent on Bassett wouldn’t cover disinterment costs.

As the Irish would say: “Peter we’ll buy you stout all night if you keep makin’ these fuckin’ hilarious movies! Fuckin’ too funny, lad! You have a wild Irish sense of irony and a great storyteller eye through yer camera eye! Even Oscar wasn’t this wild!” Thanks again! Keep up the good work.

Thank you for posting this, Peter! I’m having a hard time tracking down credits with mom’s name in it and here we are! I found some production pictures if you are interested, I’ll be scanning them in at some point and you are welcome to copies. 🙂 —Guy (Donna’s eldest offspring)

Attempting to find old friend, Donna J. Davis. Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Jim, I’m sorry to be the one to inform you that Donna passed on quite a few years ago. I don’t have addresses for any of her family. If you contact the Denver Film Commission, someone there might be able to tell you more. Donna was a dear person and a wonderful friend. She is missed.
