The prestigious Irish Arts Center in New York is welcoming back Red Roses And Petrol on Monday, October 19, at 8 p.m. Originally shown there in October 2000 in the form of Joseph O’Connor’s wickedly funny play, the Irish family story will be reintroduced to audiences as film via a special screening in honor of the DVD release. “It’s truly a full-circle moment to bring Red Roses And Petrol back there,” enthuses director Tamar Simon Hoffs who first felt inspired by the story after seeing it performed there. [With the screening], I’m hoping to embrace the far-reaching Irish community in Manhattan.” The Irish Arts Center is located at 553 West 51 Street, New York, NY 10019. For tickets, which run $10 for general admission and $8 for members, visit http://www.irishartscenter.org/film.htm or call (212) 868-4444.

World Wide Motion Pictures Corporation (WWMPC) is pleased to announce that Red Roses and Petrol star Malcolm McDowell has been interviewed by Nancy Mills of The New York Times for a feature story that will be syndicated in papers throughout the U.S. as the June 27 premiere date approaches. Additionally, McDowell will be on hand for a New York press junket June 6-8, which will include interviews with reporters from the Big Apple and Europe, where the movie will be released later this summer. Last, but not least, WWMPC has secured the AMC Empire 25 theater on 42nd Street as part of its New York opening. It is rare for an independent film if this size to be shown at The Empire, which is widely regarded as the preeminent theater in the Eastern United States, and we are thrilled about the opportunity.
