We appreciate the warm welcome from the Oregon press.  The Portland Mercury calls WE LIVE IN PUBLIC a “fascinating, sick documentary worth seeing…  [STAFF PICK]” and The Oregonian describes the film as “timely and lively.”  Thanks!

We are also thrilled to be included in uber-film critic Roger Ebert’s top ten documentaries of 2009.  In his Chicago Sun-Times review he raves, “This is a remarkable film about a strange and prophetic man [FOUR STARS].”

Tell your Portland friends to get their tickets now — this is a limited run!

Portland is the final American city of our current theatrical tour.  We are looking forward to releasing WE LIVE IN PUBLIC on DVD and via video-on-demand at the start of March!

Happy holidays!
As the end of the year approaches and journalists compile their best-of-year (and best-of-decade)  lists, we’ve been excited to see WE LIVE IN PUBLIC get a lot of nods from various people who *clearly* have excellent taste.   One of our favorite reviews from the past year came from legendary film critic Roger Ebert, who gave us a four star review in October.  We are thrilled to be a part of his year-end round-up of the best docs of 2009, alongside some other amazing docs including TYSON, THE SEPTEMBER ISSUE, and ANVIL! THE STORY OF ANVIL.

“Josh Harris… was a myopic visionary, a man who saw the future more vividly than his own life… Filmmaker Ondi Timoner was on the scene from the start… Fascinating.”

Have a fun and safe New Year’s Eve and we’ll catch you next year!

We are launching our Washington DC theatrical run **tonight** at the Landmark E Street Cinema.  Our film screens at 5:30, 7:40 and 9:50 tonight, Friday December 11, and will continue to play all week.

Roger Ebert recently raved in the Sun-Times, “This is a remarkable film about a strange and prophetic man.  [4 STARS]“  And just today, the Washington Post writes, “The title of Ondi Timoner’s Sundance award-winning documentary about the loss of privacy in the Internet age says it all: “We Live in Public.” Don’t believe it? Just try Googling “Tiger Woods” or “Michaele Salahi…”

Tell your DC-area friends!  Woo!

MORE INFO

We’ve received a warm welcome from Ohio journalists.   Cleveland.com describes the film as “…a journey through the life of dot-com entrepreneur Josh Harris, a wily wheeler-dealer who went from boom to bust, sacrificing privacy for his trenchant narcissism….  It’s great when a documentary can make us stop, catch our breath and really take notice of the weird world around us.  In this case, our ever-exposed, constant-contact, Facebook, MySpace, streaming, Skypeing, Twittering, texting lives… WE LIVE IN PUBLIC is a hoot!”

See you this weekend, Ohioans!

WE LIVE IN PUBLIC is coming to rock the Rockies!  Our film will be at the Starz Filmcenter from December 3rd through the 10th.  On opening night, Thursday December 3, the 7pm screening will be followed by a Q+A with director Ondi Timoner and on Friday December 4th, the 7:30pm screening will be followed by (in the words of the promoter…) “a provocative panel discussion and Q&A focused on the role of social media and the real-time web in media, advertising and popular culture.”  The panel members include Ondi, Ef Rodriguez of the Huffington Post and Scott Prindle + Alex Burnard of Crispin Porter + Bogusky.  GET YOUR TICKETS NOW!  Don’t find yourself in the shoes of one of those people emailing us and bemoaning the fact that they missed the run in their city and when are we coming back , yada yada… don’t be that guy.  We are so psyched to bring the film to Denver and the opening two nights in particular are going to be a blast!
