Language brings back many memories. Here are some of the responses from viewers of the trailer from “The Stairs”:

“Very cool man.”—-Lyon Richardson.

I visualized Maynard G. Kreps of “The Dobie Gillis Show” viewing my trailer.

“That look dope bro.” —Axel My’you

That means Axel dug it.

Finally, I add some kind comments from the director of the film, Hakym Reagan,

“I would like to thank Mort Laitner for having the faith in me as an artist and allowing me to give life to this wonderful story.”

Hakym you are an artist and you proved it in the making of this film. Thanks.

Here I am lecturing on the subject, “From Novel to Film” at the South Florida Writers Association’s Sixth Annual Mango Writer Conference and discussing AHO with a new fan. Thanks to David Milone for his great photography.

I am proud to announce that “The Stairs” is finished and I love it.

I think we have a winner.

Thanks to the cast and crew for their professionalism.

After months of agonizing delays the film is in the bag and we’re off to film festival land.

Today, I  am creating 44 files for the festivals we shall be entering and starting the cumbersome process of film submission.

Wish me and my team good luck.
