Alongside Night Director discusses Special Movie Screening in Dallas on Wednesday Sept 10

September 9, 2014 in News by The Manimal

With disillusionment over big government rising, Author/Director J Neil Schulman spoke to Republic Broadcasting last Friday about his new film, Alongside Night, starring Kevin Sorbo (Hercules and God’s Not Dead) that will have a Special Movie Screening this Wednesday, Sept 10, 2014 at 7:30pm in Dallas, Texas.

When asked to about his new movie, Neil explained, “Alongside Night is a near-future political thriller about what happens when the government spins itself into oblivion and puts everyone at risk.”

In this film, Kevin Sorbo plays a Nobel Prize winning economist Dr. Martin Vreeland in the midst of the final economic crisis in the US. The main character in both the novel and movie is a teenager played by a 16-yr-old actor named Christian Kramme as Elliott Vreeland. He helps his father Dr. Martin Vreeland (Kevin Sorbo) go underground to hide from big government using near-future technology that is very close to reality and raises serious privacy concerns.

As a Twilight Zone writer, Neil added that he wrote “Alongside Night” to solve the problem that Ayn Rand raises in “Atlas Shrugged”. In addition to Kevin Sorbo, the movie features sci-fi stars Tim Russ (“Live Free or Die Hard” and “Star Trek Voyager”), Garrett Wang (“Star Trek: Voyager”), Jake Busey (“Contact” with Jodie Foster), Gary Graham (“Alien Nation”), Mara Marini (“Parks and Recreation”), Valence Thomas (“Men in Black 3”) and Dr. Ron Paul (who has a cameo as himself). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1667061/?ref_=nv_sr_1

Kevin encourages people to see the film and have a conversation, “This is a movie that hopefully will wake up a few people. Once again I hope it’s not just preaching to the choir. I hope people go there and try to have an open mind and look at it and have a discussion open up after they do it.”
