The
Crooked Mile was bestowed by the pre-eminent Tribeca
Film Centre in New York in 2001, called the
Entertainment First Look Award, offered to first
time Directors. Founded by superstar Robert de Niro
and it’s the first feature film to receive the award
outside the US.
To see Jersey on the big screen in
New York was an amazing feeling, one I can’t
explain. It meant all the hard work had in fact paid
off. A lot of top film contacts were there and
American Media, a celebratory party was organised
for The Crooked Mile and America made us feel very
special!
People at the award ceremony were
interested to find out more about Jersey and this
must be good for the Island! |
