IT TAKES A TEAM TO WIN

We, that is the royal we, write a lot about the stars and the directors of this business. And we write a lot about who and what is hot and who and what is not. But we sometimes forget it takes more than a director and talent to make a winner out of the products we produce. Yeah, it takes a decent product, but it also takes a whole lot of support and energy and determination on the part of others to make something we produce a success. And yeah, sometimes in spite of all that support what we produce isn't always the success we hope it is. But it's fucking awesome to know that the support is there, working hard to make something special out of our endeavors.
In my case, I have a teammate 3000 miles away who's already working hard to make a success out of something I've produced. He's Paul "Hollywood" Di Pietro, and he's Horizon Media's kick-ass salesman!
I got an email today from "Hollywood." He writes: "JimmyD, you are all set when '2young4U' comes out. I have already started the buzz with all my customers and this thing is going to be HHHHUUUUGGGGEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Talk to you later Jimmy! -Your Man, Paul "Hollywood" Di Pietro"
So to all you directors out there, just remember: No matter how good your shit is, without a guy like "Hollywood" on your team it might go nowhere. Without someone like him, your smut's nothing more than another pretty box on a video store shelf, or worse-- collecting dust on a warehouse shelf, or coming back as a return.
2YOUNG4U is coming soon from Smash Pictures!
