October 21, 2007 After successful screenings at the Sidewalk Moving Picture Festival, Calgary International Film Festival and Port Townsend Film Festival - all on the same weekend - "Dirty Country" made its overseas debut at the Cork Film Festival in Ireland last week. We did not make it to Ireland but we heard the movie was very well received. Apparently the Irish aren't easily offended by dirty language. The movie received some more kind words from reviewers as well: "'Dirty Country' is as critically engaging as it is jaw-droppingly foul." -Calgary International Film Festival "A raunchy, surprisingly affecting doc." -Tracy McCormick, Minneapolis-St. Paul Magazine Next up, "Dirty Country" will make its San Francisco debut on Friday, Nov. 9th at the very cool Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, with two sneak preview screenings (7 and 9 pm). This is the only scheduled appearance of the film in Northern California, so don't miss it. Call 415-978-2787 (Event 4512) or visit http://www.ybca.org/ to reserve your tickets. Finally, the movie will come home to New York on Wednesday, Nov. 14th at 7 pm for a star-studded premiere at the Pioneer Theater in the East Village. The star of "Dirty Country," Larry Pierce, and his wife Sandy, will be there for the movie and a Q and A afterwards. And Larry's band -itis is flying out, too, for a very special "unplugged" Larry Pierce performance a few blocks away at Arlene's Grocery (95 Stanton St.). Larry will be on The Howard Stern Show at 8:30 am (EST) on Nov. 14th as well to talk about his latest adventures and promote the big New York premiere.
