[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 123980, member: 1991"] mstang, I doubt VERY much that you'll see us at awards nights! Although one of the other mums (her son was a lion) is wondering if we can ask if our kids can go to the premiere. I told her to not expect too much, the PR machine won't want our kids taking ANY attention away from the main attractions. PR-wise, these things are organised to every last fine detail and difficult children tend to be extremely random. I can just picture it - difficult child 3 had no idea who Toni Collette is, he still only has a vague notion. And none of the kids recognised the other stars in the movie. I, on the other hand, was walking around wondering whether to totally ignore them (give them their 'space') or rush over and ask for an autograph. As it was, the kids got a personal autograph each from Toni Collette and Gemma Ward (Toni Collette was very complimentary to difficult child 3 for his patience with repeated takes, and for ALWAYS being right 'on the mark' each time) and they also got a baseball cap with the movie logo, and later on they posted us the big glossy photo they took of the whole cast, with autographs again. Because we had three kids in it, we have three photos. That photo is on the MySpace page set up for the movie (I posted in an earlier thread with the link, but you would need to be registered on MySpace to get it). difficult child 3 is sitting right at the front in that photo. It's hard to distinguish the others - you can in our larger photo, but the thumbnail on the computer is harder. It seems we're in countdown mode now, with the Berlin Film Festival now so close. We're on tenterhooks to see how it's received there. And yes, it should get a US cinema release, we were told. Not sure - it does have Aussie accents throughout, although none are too broad. But the colours in the film, the detail in subtle ways - it will be a bright, colourful film. And the detail on autism - very accurate indeed. It's a film to show people who need to get a better understanding. Marg [/QUOTE]
