CTRL ALT DEL write-up in Phindie!

So I guess this is kind of an online press tour, and I'm pretty excited that our movie premier in Philly at the Trocadero is coming up so quick-- in just over a week I'll be flying into my hometown for this very special event. I hope people show up! I know if they do they will like the movie and also the poetry. 

I want to share this write-up by Christopher Munden on Phindie, a site which covers independent theater and film in the Philadelphia area, titled Poetry and Film: Alexandra Naughton combines literary and cinematic talents at a film premier.

The write-up contains wonderful moments such as:

“Alexandra is such an amazing writer and performer,” he gushes. “That’s one of the other reasons for having poetry with the film. I really want to showcase all these incredible artists that are creating alongside the film and bring all of us together.”

“I think viewers will enjoy the story being told in the film and the way that we tell the story,” says Naughton. “I love the film. Every time I see Pirooz, we end up watching CTRL ALT DEL at least twice. There’s a lot going on in the movie, there’s a lot to follow."

Pirooz also got a shout-out on a site called Technically Delaware, which is where he went to high-school, in a piece titled From Hockessin to Hollywood: Pirooz Kalayeh returns with film ‘CTRL ALT DEL’.

Get stoked for our film premier on Sunday, April 29 at the Trocadero! Did you get your tickets yet? You should get them now! Buy them here for $8.00 (poetry, a movie, and live music? talk about a GREAT VALUE) <3

Funding for Ctrl Alt Del

In 2015 I made a movie with Pirooz Kalayeh called Ctrl Alt Del. The story actually starts in 2014 when Kalayeh approached me about writing a story for him to make a movie into. I agreed and sent him something over which he developed into the script for Ctrl Alt Del. Several months later, around Christmas 2014, I took a week off work and flew down to Los Angeles to work on one of the most exciting projects I've ever been involved in. I wrote about the filming process in two posts on Enclave here and here, please give them a read.

Not only did I help write the film and star in it, I was also involved in the editing process and got to see the footage we shot become a real film. I love film and I love making movies and I really want to share this movie with people and keep on making movies.

Right now we are trying to raise funds in order to screen Ctrl Alt Del in New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. We only have a few more weeks on our IndieGoGo and we need to make them count. If you want to help support independent filmmaking we definitely need your help! We are trying to bring community together to share the experience of this film in theaters in these three cities.

Buy your ticket now, and please contribute what you can! Tickets are on sale now on the indiegogo: please reserve yours now so that we know it's real.
