God's Army To Open in New York, East Coast
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- Richard Dutcher's movie about LDS missionaries in Los
Angeles is coming to the rest of the United States, as distributor Excel
Entertainment pushes to get the film in theaters nationwide. This weekend,
the film opens in theaters in Colorado, Kansas, New York City, Texas, and
Virginia. By September 22nd, it will have opened in theaters in Florida,
Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina,
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, giving most of the U.S. a chance to see
the film.
Along with the openings, the movie is getting and will be reviewed in major
newspapers where it is opening. Today, for example, Dutcher is appearing on
a radio talk show on New York's WNYC, a public radio talk show, at about
1:30 pm EDT. [The program is broadcast live over the Internet through WNYC's
website at http://www.wnyc.org and will
be available in the show's archive starting tomorrow.]
Sources at Excel Entertainment told Mormon News yesterday that even after
September 22nd the show may open in other theaters as the distributor
continues to approach local, independent theaters. Depending on how long the
movie lasts in the theaters, the movie could be available on video next year
or sooner.
