"Collar" Goes Cowboy!

Willy-Gilly Productions announces entry in

2017 High Desert International Film Festival (HDIFF)

“Collar” Goes Cowboy!

Goshen, NY… Willy-Gilly Productions, Inc. has confirmed their full-length motion picture, “COLLAR” will be a featured entry in the 11^th Annual High Desert International Film Festival (HDIFF) to be held, once again, this year at The Pahrump Nugget Hotel and Casino in Pahrump, NV. 

Circle these dates on your calendar May 26-29, 2017. You don’t want to miss this year’s festivities, especially the screening of “Collar” on Sunday afternoon, the closing day, right before the awards banquet.

(Check the schedule on Facebook for the exact time and location of the screening.)

This festival showing comes slightly in advance of the long-awaited ‘limited’ release of the film, starring Tom Sizemore, David Patrick Wilson, Rebecca De Mornay, Richard Roundtree and a brilliant ensemble cast, slated for later this summer in select theaters throughout the U.S.

The much acclaimed, highly controversial, action-packed police drama deals with a veteran detective’s shooting of a young black man, a local hero in a small city in upstate New York. The story could have been ripped from the ‘front pages’ of dozens of newspapers in similar cities across the country over the past few years. It addresses a whole array of crucial issues currently plaguing America’s social landscape and the challenges of law enforcement in these troubled times.

Several members of the cast and crew will attend the screening, including Executive Producer, Nan Gill-Wilson, Actor/Writer/Director, David Patrick Wilson.

For more information on upcoming classes and projects, please contact them directly at (845)-294-7500 or info@willygilly.com.

The Big Red Machine

It is an amazing irony to me that, in this the year marking the 100th Anniversary of the Russian Revolution, I have heard precious little about what was, beyond a shadow of a doubt, one the most important events of the 20th century.  

The fact that the Russian Tsar had committed to enter WWI against Kaiser Wilhelm's Germany could have significantly shortened that nightmare. With the assassination of Nicholas, the troops bound for the Eastern Front, dropped their weapons 'en masse' and returned to Mother Russia to face there own horrors that lasted until 1989.

Now, they have to live with the ghosts of Stalin, Lenin, Trotsky, Khruschev and the rest, who must stalk the halls of the Kremlin shaking their heads and wondering where it went so wrong. They should be aghast at how the current brand of 'oligarchic capitalism' could have routed the 'supreme soviet socialism' that they preached. 

Moreover, my guess is that they would have abhorred the 'Little Czar' Putin with his 'Brooklyn thug' swagger and his 'macho' manners. But, that being said, they would probably admire his aggressive, brutal 'reunification' efforts, his unapologetic slaughter of the innocent and his inroads into destroying the confidence of All Americans by acquiring 'friends in high places,' through his use of his recently successfully tested 'cyber-weapons.'

The really tragic irony is that, "Prince Vlad" has amplified his own importance by assisting the installation of someone in the White House, the like of whom has not been experienced since Stalin sealed his Berlin bunker in 1945 with his charred remains in it.

For a man weaned on the Socialist ideal, it must be at least somewhat daunting that he has unleashed another Fascist on the World. Stay tuned for the showdown, Amerika! It IS coming. Zeig heil, Vladdy!

Making The Moment Count

www.collarthemovie.com

BUSTED!

There is only one great experience in this life and that is feeling the full impact of any and every given moment.  We live, by-in-large, in the ardent pursuit of things that take us far afield from that which is occurring right where we are at this very second.

In Life, it may be possible to spend all of your time in anticipation of a desired result.  You may even find that to be somehow pleasurable. But, unless we are open to exactly what is happening each and every second of every day, we are missing thousands of opportunities to rejoice in all that is here to be experienced, right now!

We all have dreams and desires.  We all have wants and needs.  We all share the perception from time to time that they are what is important.  There is no doubt that our experience is shaped by those elements to some degree and that what keeps us on purpose, our commitments, are a large factor in determining the emotional outcome. Make no mistake, they have a tremendous bearing on them. They are, however, only peripheral to this and every subsequent moment, hereafter.

To be Present is Everything!  It is the difference between Life and Death, waking and sleeping, Being and existing.  It is truly the Gift that God has given us ALL, of which we must constantly be reminded. Without it, we miss the most glorious things in life.  Love, Joy, Peace, Prosperity, Abundance. These are not 'quantifiable,' or at least should not be because they can all be experienced in every moment, not like data, but as parts of 'a life of Quality.'. It is a choice ONLY if you are free enough to give yourself over to Living the Moment, regardless of Any circumstance, irrespective of the outcome.

What do you choose this day?  How will you experience all that life holds for you?  Can you truly say that you are thankful for each and every moment?  If you cannot own this simple idea, we suggest that you find an infant and watch them experience all that you have forgotten.  Perhaps then you will remember this moment.  Too late..... 😎

Urgent Appeal

Yesterday was a big day at Willy-Gilly Productions!  Both the Mets and the Yankees shut out their opponents 8 zip and 7 zip, respectively.  There is not a time in recent memory when the Mets and the Yankees both shut out their opponents on the same day!  On such an auspicious occasion, we felt compelled to to launch our Indiegogo campaign for, “Collar the Movie.”

Be that as it may, today is ‘Cinco de Mayo’  (a celebration of Mexican Independence) and unlike some politicians, who shall remain unnamed, rather than building walls and fences to divide and separate us, our crowd funding campaign is intended to open the door for All of the peoples throughout the entire world to participate with us in finally bringing ‘truth’ to market.

It has become abundantly clear to us that the powers that be in Entertainment and Media (E&M) do not really want to hear what the Public has to say about Any of their output. They continue to attempt to broadcast their propaganda under the guise of (E&M), Dominate and Manipulate their audiences with their cartoonish perception of what is happening on our streets and in our world every day. Rather than interacting with the community that they are supposed to serve, they expect the sheepish masses to ‘marvel’ at their clever crafting of mindless, baseless drivel, wrapped in 3D-CGI. Thank God, those days are about over!

Therefore, we deemed it a ‘must’ to take our brand of ‘truth’ to the streets and let America’s voice be heard through this expansive opportunity.  In fact, we believe that, not only is it most necessary, it is truly what God has intended all along.

We call upon YOU, our fellow creative artists and citizens ALL, to assist us in bringing a story of substance and Truth to the big screens of our American cinema, everywhere. We need every single man and women, regardless of background, heritage or political persuasion, to check in at https://igg.me/at/collarthemovie and let your voice be heard through our campaign. Whether you contribute cash or just ‘pass’ this along, we really want you in our corner.

We have screened our film to more than 2,000 people since we began this journey.  Nearly All (88%) have responded to our exit poll inquiries favorably.  Law enforcement officers and first responders, almost to a man/woman (100%) registered their support for the entertainment content, the handling of the issues and the production values embodied in the film, which calls them to task for their own human frailty.

Had we been successful with our early efforts to distribute “Collar” by conventional means, this country may have been able to avoid some of the tragic outcomes that we have witnessed in Miami, Ferguson, Cleveland, New York, Baltimore and many other towns and cities throughout this country.
With this campaign we draw the line and remove the “gag” from the mouths of the tellers of truth.  All we ask is that you take a look, see what it is that is in your heart to do and join us in our efforts to make American REALLY great again.

There are no political solutions.  We the people are the answer.  This is a ‘people’s movie’.  We are a ‘people’s company’.  YOU are the People whose Truth shall be heard, God willing.  Join us! https://igg.me/at/collarthemovie
