Since the trailer for Howard J Ford’s (Director/Co-Writer of the US number 1 genre hit ‘The Dead’) ‘Never Let Go’ www.neverletgomovie.com was unveiled at last year’s Berlinale, it achieved substantial buyer interest leading up to the completed film’s Cannes preview where it was hailed by one critic as ‘the most gripping film of the festival’ and has since sold in 18 countries with TV dub’s underway in 7 languages.
Now nominated for the prestigious National Film awards both as best thriller and best Independent film, amongst such giants as ‘Spectre’, ‘Kingsman’, it would seem Brit director Howard (Repped by Gersh LA) is heading for another home run! http://nationalfilmawards.co.uk/nominations-for-the-national-film-awards-2016-revealed/
Howard today said 'The enthusiasm and reactions we get from the film are just incredible and given that I wrote the film after nearly loosing my own son whilst on holiday I'm happy to feel so much support for it, especially for the fact it is a female driven film, as I felt the market was lacking in this area. To be nominated amongst such incredible films is a huge honor and frankly just to be sat near Helen Mirren at the televised event next month is exciting enough, I'm not even going to dream about winning!!'
