    RED CARPET PREMIERE OF THE MAILBOX FAIRY

    Summary: “Mailbox Fairy” is one of the funniest Independent Romantic Comedies made in the last decade. The film takes place in Hope Island and is about a dork named Artie (Ryan Hanley), who doesn’t have anything positive in life going for him. His everyday life consists of working at the diner as a bus boy, hanging out with his much younger friends, BeeBee (Gracie Rennick), Bobby (Andrew Cavanaugh, Brandon (Zack Turnquist)and Chu Chu (David Try) and wishing he was Lynn Nutmeg’s boyfriend, who is the owner of the diner. Artie lives with his grandmother (Mary Paolino), who is a Karate and Tae Kwon Do Freak,and is the only person Artie has to look up to. The Grandma encourages Artie to chase after Lynn and not give up on her. Artie then discovers he has a magical talent. He can make beautiful and amazing mailboxes out of wood. This talent then leads him to this idea that by replacing the damaged mailboxes in Hope Island with new ones, will get in the newspaper and get Lynn’s attention. Although, Lynn (Nicole Trychon) does become interested in this mysterious person stealing mailboxes, her life becomes a nightmare when her partner in the diner, Hopkins (Shelly Whittle), decides he wants to take full control of the diner and push Lynn out. Now what does Artie do?

    The Premiere is Dec. 13 at the New Park Cinema in Cranston. There will be a red carpet event followed by two shows at 4:30 and 8pm.
