BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

A Look Inside The Documentary "Small Market, Big Heart" And How To Get Tickets To The Premiere

An amazing new documentary will be having it's premiere on January 9, 2012 at 7 pm at the Crest Theater. “Small Market, Big Heart” is the name of the documentary. A long time Sacramento Kings fan and a local boy who has followed and loved the Kings since I moved here in 1991. I am proud to share this information with you.

The story will show you the pride and loyalty this team has for the Sacramento Kings. The documentary shows you highlights of the team over the past 26 years and the day we almost lost the team. But with the famous movement that was started to keep the Kings here at-least one more year called “Here We Stay”

The film was directed by local filmmaker Tobin Halsey and produced by James Ham and Blake Ellington. Although the film was made on a budget of less then $10,000, the group received an amazing amount of help from local professionals, as this is truly a grassroots, community-based project.

Here is information on how to get tickets to the event-

This story has many heroes, but one common theme – a community with a huge heart. As a small market, Sacramento has faced enormous adversity, first in landing an NBA franchise and then maintaining that franchise through both good and bad economic times. The one constant has always been incredible community support, as the Kings have sold out all of their games in 19 of 26 seasons in Sacramento.



Over the last year, faced with the possibility of losing their team, grassroots movements fought to engage political leaders to fight for Sacramento’s one and only professional franchise. The outcome was nothing short of a miracle, as the combined efforts of many, led to an NBA first — a one year extension for a city to get a new entertainment and sports complex built.

This film will illustrate Sacramento’s struggle to remain relevant in the high-stakes game of professional sports. The story is told through the eyes of long-term members of media, former and current members of the Sacramento Kings franchise, local politicians and lastly, the common members of the Sacramento community that stood tall in the face of adversity.

The fight is not over. The NBA has given Sacramento until March 1 to get a financing mechanism in place for a new entertainment and sports complex. If that doesn’t happen, the city may lose its most recognizable community asset. Our goal is to release this film in December of 2011 while the story is still unfolding, and then revisit the ending when a final outcome is decided. During these crucial times, it is important for the community to have knowledge of the unique history of the Sacramento Kings and how important it is for the franchise to stay in the River City.

This film will set the scene for what is to be the future of our region.

I hope the Kings leave Sacramento. The Maloofs need to put up money for the new arena, not the city of Sacramento!

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim
