All The Rage

From Oscar-shortlisted Filmmaker Michael Galinsky
Opens Today (June 23) at Cinema Village in NYC

Using a first-person approach to explore the work of renowned physician Dr. John Sarno, and his radical methods to treating back pain, ALL THE RAGE examines the connection between emotions and health. Through interviews with Sarno, distinguished patients, and esteemed experts, the film offers a profound rethink of how we approach our healthcare.

The Reagan Show

Backed by CNN Films, Sundance Institute, Cinereach, and Tribeca All Access
100% on Rotten Tomatoes
Starts June 30 at Metrograph in NYC

THE REAGAN SHOW is an all-archival documentary about the original performer-president’s role of a lifetime. Teasing apart the spectacle at the heart of finger-on-the-button global diplomacy, the film follows Ronald Reagan's rivalry with charismatic Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, tracing how the Communicator-in-Chief uses his public relations chops to overcome Soviet mistrust, the objections of a skeptical press corps and the looming threat of WWIII. Chock full of wit and political irony, and told solely through 1980s network news and videotapes created by the Reagan administration itself, the film explores Reagan’s made-for-TV approach to politics as he faced down the United States’ greatest rival.

From longtime TFC client Casper Andreas— his eighth feature film!

Two cousins from Flatbush, Brooklyn who work as phone repairmen stumble across insider trading tips and start tapping a phone line. But when stock tips turn to murder plots, the hapless men are unable to go to the police and soon find themselves in over their heads and flat out of luck. An impending wedding and sexual confusion round out the plot in this romantic comedy crime caper.
