The Connecticut Film Festival recently asked Corey Boutilier of IndependentFilm.com to interview Rebecca Miller for a special screening of her new film. The advance screening was held in Danbury, CT at the Palace Theater on Main St. where part of her film was shot. Connecticut adopted film tax credits to attract filmmaking in the state which this film was able to enjoy. This special introduction video screened to a sold out audience with over 450 attendees. An impressive feat by CT Film Festival Director Tom Carruthers who organized the event in just two weeks which also featured appetizers, beer and wine. This film is distributed by Screen Media Films.

ART & COPY is a film about advertising and inspiration. Directed by Doug Pray (SURFWISE, SCRATCH, HYPE!), it reveals the work and wisdom of some of the most influential advertising creatives of our time -- people who've profoundly impacted our culture, yet are virtually unknown outside their industry. Exploding forth from advertising's "creative revolution" of the 1960s, these artists and writers all brought a surprisingly rebellious spirit to their work in a business more often associated with mediocrity or manipulation: George Lois, Mary Wells, Dan Wieden, Lee Clow, Hal Riney and others featured in ART & COPY were responsible for "Just Do It," "I Love NY," "Where's the Beef?," "Got Milk," "Think Different," and brilliant campaigns for everything from cars to presidents. They managed to grab the attention of millions and truly move them. Visually interwoven with their stories, TV satellites are launched, billboards are erected, and the social and cultural impact of their ads are brought to light in this dynamic exploration of art, commerce, and human emotion.
