DUE TO the large amount of email I have received and after hearing many of the same questions often, I decided to do the obvious: create a Frequently Asked Questions page. All the questions listed below are only those which, as you might guess, were frequently asked. I didn't make any of these up.

  1. WHEN CAN I SEE THIS FILM IN MY AREA?
    Well you can start by buying the DVD here on Amazon.com. You can also get the VHS there too. Or if you want to purchase the film directly from me, via mail order, click here. If you're not into buying, you can rent the film on Netflix.

    Showtime used to air it on their satellite networks, as well as on Showtime Too, but their contract has expired. You can rent the DVD if you live in Norway. We also sold the rights to Turkey, Russia and Greece many years ago, but it is unknown whether you can currently see the film there.

  2. HOW CAN I USE THE WEB TO RAISE MONEY FOR MY FILM?
    This has quickly become the second most asked question. The sad truth is that I have not discovered the great secret to film financing over the Internet. All the people who came to this site and eventually invested in the film became friends with me first. They got to know me and trust me, and they believed in the film. While I worked hard to get the word out to as many people as possible, and certainly made every attempt with this site to make the movie look intriguing and marketable, it was pure luck and the kindness of strangers that got me to the finishing point. (It helped that I had recognizable stars, too.)

  3. ARE YOU STILL SELLING PHOTOS ON THE SITE, OR HAVE YOU RUN OUT OF THEM?
    As long as I have the negatives, I will continue to sell photos of the stars right here on the site. You can find out more info on this page.

  4. ARE YOU GOING TO ENTER THE FILM INTO THE SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL?
    Because the film was completed in early 1999, it is no longer eligible for most festivals. Anyway, Sundance's secret is that its programming is based on the festival committee's invitations to the filmmakers, not from an open call as they would have you believe.

  5. DO CORIN NEMEC OR WIL WHEATON HAVE OFFICIAL FAN CLUBS I CAN WRITE TO?
    You can visit Wil's official site here, which is just about the closest you can get to the man. Corin Nemec does not seem to have an official fan club, but you can find him via most Stargate fan clubs.

  6. I WANT MELANIE LYNSKEY TO BE IN MY FILM TOO. WHERE CAN I WRITE HER?
    Mel's career has taken off and she's a bit busy these days, but if you have the perfect project for her, I wish you good luck, and you can send your queries and submissions - or just fan mail - to her in care of her manager:

    Melanie Lynskey
    c/o Susan Smith & Associates
    121 S. San Vicente Blvd.
    Beverly Hills CA 90211
    U.S.A.

  7. CAN YOU PERSONALLY PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH ONE OF YOUR ACTORS?
    Sorry, I won't interfere with the actors' private lives. If you want to send fan mail to one of the stars, you may email me with your request, and I'll give you their agent's or manager's address.
