Still no Minnesota?! Argh! Kal should have a talk with the people who have power and persuade them to bring this movie to MN! It was successful in the 6 theaters it opened in ($250,000)! Come on!

PS: Congrats on the success of the film!

Kal, please let us know if there are will be any upcoming showings in Hawaii. I've been waiting to see this movie since I read the novel! I wish I had been able to attend your talk at the Academy for Creative Media at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I hope it went well!

Hey I just wanted to say that I saw this movie here at the Mayan in Denver,Colorado tonight and I was really impressed. I had never read the book and was just invited to this movie by a friend. It was incredibly touching. I was crying halfway through and I know that much of the rest of the crowd was sniffling around me as well (bring tissues!). The acting was superb throughout. I was actually disappointed when the movie ended because I wanted to continue to follow the family. The crazy thing was, you could consider this a sad movie in a lot of regards, but I actually left feeling content and uplifted at the same time. Amazing.

Hi Kal,

Got a chance to see the movie last friday night. What a beautiful film, I have mentioned it to everyone I work with as a must see! Someone just gave me the book today, can't wait to read it. Good Luck, glad to see it is opening in a bigger theater in NYC too!
