Film Industry Happy Hour May 28th at O'Niell's


crewnewmexico.com is hosting our monthly Film Industry Happy Hour on May 28th at O'Niell's Pub on Central Ave in ABQ.

We're calling together folks from across the industry for a night of networking, meet and greet, and kicking back on the patio with beer specials from New Belgium Brewery.

Last month's event was a great success - and we look forward to seeing you again, or for the first time.

No RSVP required. Simply come on down to O'Niell's on May 28th, between 5-9pm.

Director McG Talks About Terminator Salvation

Sporting a dark purple suit at the press day for Terminator Salvation, director McG was so eager to talk to press about his latest project that he came in excitedly asking the room full of reporters what we all thought of the movie. As he sat down, the engaging director noticed a journalist wearing a T-shirt with an old record on it and started the interview on his own by talking about how he missed record stores and how that tied into the film.

"Hi guys, I have a Technics turntable. This film has a lot to do with progress and there's progress and de-progress, and I would consider the death of the record shop not progress. I'm not kidding. I love iTunes like the next guy, but I love sifting through the racks and finding records. I wanted the film, in fact, to feel very tactile, so we built everything and ultimately blew it up."
