"This marks the beginning of production of the film and we anticipate that we will complete casting by September, and be filming in October," according to Executive Producer and Company President, Kenneth Eade. "As the Executive Producer of his last film, 'Say it in Russian,' I feel confident that Jeff will bring the big studio feeling to this picture the way he did with the last feature," he added. Former actor Jeff Celentano met with immediate success when he turned to directing in 1992. He staged South Africa's award-winning play "Soweto's Burning" in Los Angeles where his production attracted awards as well as was named the Los Angeles Times' "Pick of the Week" for three weeks running. Celentano's first film, the short film "Dickwad," won both the "Best Original Comedy" award at the Houston International Film Festival and the Silver Award at the Philadelphia International Film Festival in 1994. With numerous additional invitations, Jeff Celentano gained acceptance on the "festival circuit," winning a total of five awards, including Best Director. Jeff went on to direct Academy Award winning actress Diane Lane in the critically acclaimed "Gunshy" (1998), featuring William Peterson ("CSI"), and "Primary Suspect" (2000), starring William Baldwin.
