Allen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1078 From: Checotah, Oklahoma Registered: Jul 2002 posted 09-28-2002 04:43 PM                     You might try contacting Boxoffice.com as they seem to have a handle on all the distributors. I plan on doing that and using Mexican movies when my operation is up and going as we have quite a large Latino population in the south county and no one is catering to them (out of 12 screens in the area).

Click on on the Print Sources link (near bottom of screen) to view the producer list. Scroll to the bottom of the page to find a list of distributors. We had a quite a bit in 35mm for this year's festival (well over two dozen features in a week-long stint, which makes for quite a challenge in a platter house!); you should be able to put together a healthy program.  |  IP: Logged
