Mister Organ: Tickets on sale for LA, NY & beyond!

Mister Organ opens October 6 in the USA and Canada. I will update ticket links here as they come to hand.

Hi,

Below is a list of when and where Mister Organ will be playing in the USA in October. I will add ticket links as cinemas put them on sale.

The film is being distributed by Giant Pictures and is playing primarily at my favourite cinema chain, the Alamo Drafthouse. Obviously it’s not playing everywhere — but if it does well in these cities, it’s my hope it will spread.

It’s a tough landscape out there, what with Marvel movies and so on. The success of a small indie doc like this relies on people spreading the word, buying tickets, and showing enthusiasm so the cinemas take notice.

I made this film for the big screen, and I hope you make it along. It will be available online and blu-ray later in the year. I will update this page with those details as they come to hand.

David.

I have written hundreds of pieces over the last three years, from investigations and deep dives, to behind-the-scenes pieces about my work. Here are some of my favourites.

Thanks for supporting my documentary work

Growing up in New Zealand — with my eyes often glued to a cinema screen — it’s always been a dream to have something I’ve made play at the movies in America.

So even if you’re not in America, let me have my moment of going, “Holy hell yes, Mister Organ is coming to the movies in America!”

I will update this page as new details come out about Mister Organ’s USA journey: webworm.co/p/misterorganamerica.

And I’d love it if you could help spread the word — maybe share this page you’re reading right now, or our latest trailer.

It all helps.

Thanks a tonne.

If you’re not in America — I am working on it. This journey ain’t easy. But I am over the moon I get to live my Hollywood dreams and have it play in US cinemas very soon.

Thanks to Alamo for the support.

Can’t wait to sweat and stress in a theatre with you. And laugh a bit, too.

David.

PPS: Here are a few reviews off my favourite film website Letterboxd, from when we showed the film in New Zealand. I really hope to see you there at this “completely and insidiously batshit” movie.
