A nearly packed house at the UICA greeted the premiere of Coyote tonight. Set up by a short film from Jason Roth, a student film from Coyote director Joel Potrykus, and the trailer for Potrykus' prior film Gordon, Coyote played very well to the audience. In addition to the new Chance Jones song, which was in a very sparse acoustic arrangement, an edit of Nobody's Baby played over the credits to great effect. Joshua Burge was great in the lead, carrying the load of the movie on his shoulders and not flinching at all. Bol had the great comment at the end of the night that the crowd for the movie was all set and ready to bust out laughing and have a good time at any moment, and during a key scene in the movie when a few folks did start to giggle the performance really reeled people back in to what was happening. Great job all around.
For those interested in purchasing a copy of Coyote, email the director at zoozersadd@yahoo.com or joelpotrykus@gmail.com. Each copy is $6.
