And now for a note from the team featuring a **celebrity cameo**:

It's not all about the NEW cities, we are still going and going in NYC, LA and SAN FRAN! BOY is still at the Angelika theater in NYC! MAYBE it's because Wyatt Cenac of The Daily Show (maybe you've heard of it) showed up last week when we randomly snuck into a theater to see what was up last Wednesday. (what? you don't do that?)

Famous people : No Longer Too Good To See Movies In Theaters

Have you seen BOY in the theater? What? WHAT. WHAT. Do you think you're better than a famous person? Of course you don't because you gave to this movie on Kickstarter and are therefore awesome. But doesn't it make going to theaters that much more exciting when there's a chance you could run into Wyatt Cenac?!*

*it should.

      I am so happy right now! The movie is opening in Memphis! I have been smiling all day. I haven't been this excited about a movie in a long time. The only sad thing is that I will have to wait until May :( Thanks for you guys hard work!

      We're going to Atlanta! Check http://boythefilm.com for more details on theaters. No word on St. Louis - which is a bummer, since one of us on the "team" is from there!

    I’m going to give you a personal day-long tour of Waihau Bay, New Zealand with some of the cast and crew members, followed by dinner cooked by me and my aunty. This is where we made BOY. We’ll arrange two round-trip domestic airline tickets, food and lodging included. I’ll send you everything else above, of course. Let’s sit on the beach and get to know each other. We can talk about BOY or anything else that’s on your mind.
