Dumbstruck Premiere

My brother Mark and his wife Lindsay are creators of a great film called Dumbstruck. I've been a little bit involved and am super proud of the movie.

They had a premiere in DC - and I'm happy to say this may be the first time ever all 17 reviews gave the movie a thumbs up, including the Washington Post!

Here are some of the reviews. Check out the Dumbstruck movie site for more including future openings in Atlanta, LA and cities around the US.
