Gavin Film: Andrew & Jeremy Get Married

von Gavin Film

Gavin Film is proud to announce that we will represent the World Wide Sales on Don Boyd's ANDREW & JEREMY GET MARRIED This feature length documentary commissioned by the BBC and produced by Charles Sturridge's Firstsight Films will have its World Premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in the prestigious Reel to Reel section. The film will be released theatrically in the UK by Tartan Films in November. Toronto screenings are as follows: 10 Sep 6:45pm Cumberland 3 11 Sep 12:15pm Varsity7(Industry) 12 Sep 9:00am Royal Ont. Museum Recent legislative decisions in the United States and France makes ANDREW & JEREMY GET MARRIED a very topical film and we are offering all rights in all territories. I will be in Toronto from the 9th to 15th of September at the MARRIOTT HOTEL 90 Bloor Street East. Toronto ON M4W 1A7 Tel: (416) 961 8000 Fax: (416) 961 4635. You can always contact me on my UK mobile 00 44 7753 741 693 or by e-mail. I very much look forward to seeing you in Toronto. Warmest Regards Bill Andrew and Jeremy share a year of their lives in Don Boyd's intimate portrait of a relationship as his camera follows them from their London homes, to Brighton, Palm Springs and West Hollywood. The 20 year age gap between Chelsea based Jeremy, a Cambridge graduate and literary socialite, makes for little common ground with council estate tenant Andrew, former bus driver, heroin addict and ex-con. But this is a compelling exploration of a relationship which is as happy as any heterosexual coupling en route to marriage.
