I just got an invite to the screening for an upcoming movie called The Bill Collector, a Moonlit Pictures dramedy written and directed by Cristobal Krusen of Messenger Films. Cris is a talented and humble guy with a really big heart. The film stars Danny Trejo of Disney’s Spy Kids and singer Ron Kenoly. Release date is later this fall.
What is great about this film is that it was shot in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, using many locals. Cast and crew were pulled from my church, New Life Providence. If you have heard of Fireproof or Facing the Giants, this is the kind what New Life hopes to do with The Bill Collector.
I am just bummed I wasn’t able to help out with the film back when they shot it in October and November 2008. I was chosen to be an extra and very excited about the prospect. But unforeseen circumstances meant I had to back out. I am sure the experience would have been a blast.
Kudos to you, Cris and crew!
