Focus Groups Screenings at Franny's

Read all about the world record beating People's Premiere here.

We held endless focus group screenings in Franny's front room during the three year production. In early 2008 this became a weekly occurrence as we were trying to get as many new brains on the film as possible, and sell the final shares.

Normal film premieres are glitzy and exclusive, with nobody invited except VIPs - but the People's Premiere is different: VIPs, IPs and plain old Ps are all welcome to the world's first INclusive film launch. Featuring synchronised screenings at a staggering 60 different cinemas across the nation. With a solar-powered cinema tent pitched in London's Leicester Square, the People's Premiere is also the planet's first truly green film premiere - no greenwash allowed.

Please note all these details are still provisional, as there's many a slip twixt cup and lip, and nobody's ever pulled off something quite like what we're planning before...
