Thank You All For a Fantastic Premiere [Photos]


This past Sunday, August 12th, The Curators of Dixon School had its premiere at the Gene Siskel Film Center. It was sold out hours before the movie showed. Arriving at the theater to see the sign saying “the film was sold out” was an amazing feeling.

It felt even better to see the people who were in line to buy tickets for the next performance.

Thank you all for your support. Here are some of my favorite photos from the premiere:
