Hey folks, Harry here... It is rare that you get to be in the presence of a true living legend. As anyone could see during the Oscar ceremony, Kirk Douglas' wit is very much at full speed... that jab at his son Michael during their presentation of that award... well it was priceless. Getting to see this movie with him in attendance would just be perfect. Back last August we heard nice things from an early preview of a very early roughcut... I'm very much looking forward to seeing this and envy anyone that gets to see it in the presence of Kirk Douglas!
