Dear producers and columnists:
Robert Davi (IMDB bio here: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001108/) is promoting his latest movie, The Dukes, a dark comedy about former Doo Wop stars who fall on hard times and struggle for another chance.  Davi described it best when he said, "I wanted to tell a story for the everyman but with a light touch.  By having a Doo Wop group whose music is no longer seemingly relevant parallel an industrial world changing to a technological one, I am able to explore the intricacies of re-defining oneself, dealing with lost fame and holding on to your true self in changing times through music and humor. The other thing that I was intent on doing with the film was in some way parallel the current devastating economic situation we are currently facing in America and around the world.  I wanted to make a film that spoke to the average man and the struggle and choices some may be faced with during these desperate times.  My goal was to tell a story about American spirit and this is the story of The Dukes.  It makes people want to pick themselves up, get in the game and start again."

Would you be interested in scheduling an interview with Mr. Davi?  The film will be opening in Seattle, Portland, Syracuse, Albany and Orchard Park, NY on Friday.  Upon scheduling an interview, we will be able to secure tickets for you to use or give away to as well as screeners for reviewers.  In addition to discussing the movie, Mr. Davi can discuss politics in Hollywood, partisanship at the studios, the business of Hollywood and why entertainment is a solid sector during tough economic times.  Please call me to confirm an interview.
