Running Funny DVD Release!


Hi Everybody,

We're excited to announce that our award winning independent film, Running Funny, is now widely available on DVD. The bonus features on the DVD include an audio commentary track, as well as the short film Skeeball, written and directed by Anthony Grippa. Running Funny stars Tony nominated actor Louis Zorich, Maximilian Osinski (Universal Pictures "The Express"), and Gene Gallerano. Based on Charles Evered's play, Running Funny was written for the screen by Evered and the film's director, Anthony Grippa.

Here's what the Chicago Tribune said about it: "A young Paul Giamatti played Michael onstage in 1988, and Osinski brings a similar wounded soulfulness to the part. Gallerano is suitably high-strung as the know-it-all Eddie, and Zorich excels. Grippa ... manages to hit the right emotional chords."

You can pre-order the Running Funny DVD online today at sites like amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com, or simply by clicking here! It makes a great holiday present for the film lover in your life.

Also, a special note TO ALL NETFLIX SUBSCRIBERS: Be sure to save the Running Funny DVD in your queue! The more people who save it in their queue, the longer the movie will be available for more people to watch and enjoy.

And finally, as a true independent film, Running Funny's marketing budget is pretty slim. The success of the DVD depends heavily on your recommendation. You can help make a real difference by forwarding this email to a few friends or relatives and recommending that they purchase the DVD or rent it on Netflix.

Thanks for your continued support and Happy Holidays!

Anthony Grippa & Matt Christensen
