Rugby Movie Starts

This article about a rugby union film came via 'Rugby Magazine'. I would be most interested to hear your comments once you have seen the film.

"The rugby movie Forever Strong opens in 258 select US theaters on Friday, September 26th. This movie is a huge step forward in creating awareness for rugby in the US .

But we have a HUGE challenge before us. The studios in Hollywood have threatened to pull this film nationally after one week if we don't have a GREAT opening weekend. They don't believe that rugby has a big enough audience to make this film profitable.

Your help is very much wanted and needed.

PLEASE support this movie by ATTENDING THIS WEEKEND (September 26-28). Take friends. Blog about it. Plan a group activity with your team or school. If we do well this weekend, we will be expanding the release into more theaters in more parts of the country. Help us bring this film to more markets, and make it a success.
