As a result of all your votes,
Life on Four Strings won the Gotham Film Audience Award! Cindy and I had a great time at the awards ceremony and the win was totally unexpected. Thank you for all your help mobilizing our community to vote and spread the word. Many of you have been backing me since day one and I really wouldn't be making films if it were not for all your love and support.
We got some
ink in Variety but only as an example of how bad
12 Years of Slave did at the Gotham Awards, hilarious!

Geeked that I got to meet one of my favorite actors Mike B. Jordan.
I’ve been a fan since he was Wallace in The Wire and Friday Night Lights
just sealed the deal. He won the Breakthrough Actor Award that night
for his lead role as Oscar Grant in Fruitvale Station.

Got to meet Director Ryan Coogler who won Breakthrough Director Award for this film Fruitvale Station. |

Jake was in NYC but couldn't make it to the awards ceremony because
he was performing with Paul Simon at a fundraiser that night. I got to
catch up with him and his manager Chris the next day.
