The movie stars Jimmy Smitts, Jon Seda, and Paul Rodriguez*in a*role you wouldn’t expect. We got the chance to preview the movie last night*and it is a great movie with a lot of comedy and still very heart-warming.
**An actor from American Me was there promoting the movie and he*said that the African-American community has organized a group called the*Weekend group and every time a new movie comes out starring an*African-American*actor or director over 2 million people go to the opening day and support the*movie. They are trying to get a similar group started in the Latino community. *actor or director over 2 million people go to the opening day and support the*movie. They are trying to get a similar group started in the Latino community. ** If you are tired of seeing us in roles of gang-bangers, gardeners,*housemaids, here’s a chance to do something about it and enjoy an*excellent movie.
The movie will not be getting a lot of publicity at all*so spread the word, and if you see it and like it, go see it again!*If it makes a difference, OZOMATLI is on the soundtrack!:*Pass the word. The movie stars Jimmy Smits (formerly of N. Y. P. D.
*Blue):** . . . The Sacramento Hispanic Chamber or Commerce was responsible*for bringing the premier of The Price of Glory to Sacramento. It is an*excellent movie.
You really have to go see it. At the premier they*announced that the movie will begin showing on March 31st. They told us*how important it is to go see a movie the first two weekends that it is out. *If the movie does*not generate enough ticket sales during the first two weekends it is pulled*from the theater. *Anyway, excellent LATINO actors, director and producer. The*company that paid for the movie to be produced,New Line Cinema, decided*not to advertise this movie to the American market.
The only advertisement is*word of mouth. So, please help support positive Latino movies and tell*everyone*you know to go see it during the first or second weekend its out. See your*local newspaper for locations.Film and Cinema
