Johnny Was Wins Audience Award

[L. Bird]

This is Roger's latest film.  Repost from IMDB:

>Johnny Was just won the audience award for Rebelfest, the indie festival at 
>Toronto.

The film had the best audience vote and reaction of about ten movies, many 
of which were also very good.

Its first screening was so sold out that they invited it back for an encore 
screening.

But hey, ME-1261, who thinks any of us who liked the movie have to be 
imaginary - like we aren't allowed to have our own opinions unless they 
agree with you. I liked it. OK? You're allowed to not like it. But the 
biggest indie audience at Toronto liked it too. Enough to make it the 
audience winner. Or maybe the makers flew in 500 people from Ireland to 
Toronto and its all part of your same great plot. Or maybe YOU are some 
kinda marketer, just wanting to whoop up some controversy????

Some of the comments are over the top both good and bad, but then they are 
like that for just about every indie on IMDB, usually written by the 
director's granma - it's just a good little movie with a great soundtrack. 
If there's a prize for best soundtrack somewhere, this one should get it.
