The European Kid Starring Ben Grinnell

Zoo Milk’s co-founder Ben Grinnell went off to shoot a little film by writer/director Ian Martin a while back, and low and behold it turns out it kicks ass! It’s gotten a bunch of press recently, was featured at the 2008 South By Southwest Film Festivall, and is picking up steam across the country in numerous film festivals. You can WATCH THE TRAILER here, and check below for the most recent news:

- We got an excellent review in Austin Chronicle for SXSW screening. Here’s an excerpt: “The highlight of the second of the three Reel Shorts programs is, hands-down, “The European Kid” (D: Ian Martin), never smug in its celebration of mid-century modern home colors and an unlikely sex god. Indeed, it makes dysfunction seem, well, fun.” Full review here: http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrobase/Issue/story?oid=oid%3A602185

As a side note, if anyone has any recommendations for a theatrical manager for Mr. Grinnell, please drop us a line at us@zoomilk.com. That would be tighter than shit.
