TORONTO - The production team for the "Dimitri The Lover Movie” quietly uploaded a test trailer to YouTube on February 13, 2010, in order to obtain public feedback regarding this controversial and groundbreaking film. Subsequently, 3 extremely illuminating test screenings of the "Director's Cut" of the film were conducted to obtain the opinions of demographically diverse audiences.
Public feedback generated by both the trailer and the test screenings ranged from extreme praise, anticipatory excitement, & great elation, to moral outrage, profanity-laden abuse, & threats of violence. After taking some time to digest these widely divergent reactions, Thought Crime Films and Filmed2Taste have decided to schedule a press conference and screening during which a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT will be made concerning the future of the film.
This event will give media and distributors an opportunity to get a "sneak peek" at a work in progress and will also allow them to direct any and all questions to key members of the production team, including Hollywood Producer Brad Goodman and London, UK Director Rob Bryton. Dimitri The Lover and his "High Priestess", Colette O'Quinn, will also be made available to media for the first time to field questions regarding the project.
Finally, a seduction student with severe Multiple Sclerosis that Dimitri The Lover transformed from a man who had been sexless for years into one of Toronto's most proficient seducers, will address the media to discuss how Dimitri The Lover's seduction techniques helped him overcome issues related to his physical disability. He will also discuss why he volunteered to participate in the film project and why he feels it is so important to all men in society.
This event is open to film distributors, figures of public interest, and all media, including "Fifth Estate" media outlets, such as popular blogs. Seats are limited so R.S.V.P. by email ASAP at movie@dimitrithelover.com
