This has been a strange year for movies – lots of big “blockbuster” films, and lots of star-heavy vehicles too, but nothing that really stands out much. I’ve been compiling my “Best of the Year” list and re-checking what’s hit in 2012, and I gotta tell ya it’s not as easy to choose the winners as you might think. But one recent film that’s really impressed me in FOR A GOOD TIME, CALL… which stars Ari Graynor and Lauren Anne Miller as entrepreneurial New York ladies that start their own phone sex line. It’s a fresh and funny adult comedy, reminiscent of 1980’s comedies, where women took the lead. This Thursday we’re hosting a special advance screening for the Dallas audiences, giving you guys a chance to see this for FREE and before anyone else – that’s how we do.
To enter for a chance to win a pass (admits two) just send us an e-mail and say “I want FOR A GOOD TIME, CALL tickets for Dallas!” in the subject line. It’s that easy. If the e-mail link doesn’t work send to hotfishstudios [at] hotmail.com
We’ll start notifying winners Wednesday evening. Standard screening rules apply, a pass does NOT guarantee you a seat, make sure to arrive early to get a good seat. If you show up just before the movie is scheduled to start, and are turned away, don’t blame us! Also note this is an ADULT comedy, so leave the kiddos at home or with a sitter.

The contemporary comedy that world-premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, lifting audiences to their feet and lifting their spirits. Two young women, short on the funds needed to live in New York City, agree to room together. But they’re an at-odds couple; Lauren (Lauren Anne Miller) is reserved, while Katie (Ari Graynor of “The Sitter”) is irrepressible. These roommates have nothing in common – until Lauren discovers that Katie is working as a phone-sex operator, and recognizes a good business opportunity. As the money begins to roll in, the two realize the value of not just their booming partnership but their growing friendship.
