Trip Out On "Memory Lane"

Memory Lane coming on March 24th        A brilliant science thriller that has been                compared to independent  sci-fi               classics  Pi , Memento and Primer       "Shawn Holmes, an Afghan War veteran, spent the last of of his savings to make "Memory Lane."  So glad the lead character in this film has one of those things, you know, your childhood, your past, oh a memory... The psychological thriller tells the story of a war veteran who travels the real world and the afterlife in search of his fiance's killer by stopping and restarting his heart. Holmes started writing around the third grade and has been writing with his friend Hari Sathappan for years. "Memory Lane is really just a combination of a lot of stuff that we have written from way back then to the middle of college so we just kind of combined everything we had and it turned out to be this," said Holmes. Friends were all over the set while making "Memory Lane" and when they were off set, too. Holmes' two roommates Zac Snyder and Michael Guy Allen, who is an Afghan War vet like his character, star in the movie. "I wrote a lot of it around his experiences as an Afghan War combat veteran," said Holmes. "My other friend Zac Snyder also lived with us at the time, he stars in the movie. All the actors just volunteered so it was really easy to shoot being that I lived with two of the stars." Once finished, "Memory Lane" was shown by the West Virginia Filmmakers Guild and Holmes was the youngest nominee ever for WV Filmmaker of the Year. Holmes then released "Memory Lane" online for one weekend and reached 22 thousand hits including the Wall Street Journal and Yahoo which helped build buzz and land Holmes in Hollywood where he's currently working on various high level projects. Synopsis:  When PTSD-plagued war vet Nick returns home and finds that his finance Kayla has committed suicide, he decides to take his own life, but what he sees in flashbacks moments before he is resuscitated leads him to believe Kayla was murdered. Now Nick must travel back and fourth between our world and the afterlife in a search of her killer - but to do it, he will need to die over and over again.  Pre-Order: http://mvdb2b.com/s/MemoryLane/MVD6957D  Website: https://beta.smplmchn.com/films/250/memory-lane Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MemoryLaneMovie Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQwdpncamF4

Leonard Nimoy, Go Boldly Into The Next Adventure

Leonard Nimoy as Spock: Live Long and Prosper

Leonard Nimoy most known for his iconic role as Spock on the TV series Star Trek, which later spawned a string of successful movies with the original cast and then a later a new one has passed away.

While I was never into Star Trek I respect it's place in television history and the cultural impact it has had.

So I asked my friend and Trekkie Rhonda Bernstein to speak to the passing of Mr. Nimoy:

"I was very saddened and surprised to hear of his passing. Spock, as written and portrayed by Nimoy, was truly an iconic figure and one of the most complex, endearing and enduring characters in all the Star Trek iterations. Nimoy used his fame to advance numerous artistic and charitable causes.  His lifetime of achievements, both before and off the screen, enriched us all."

Well put! 

R.I.P. Spock
