“A ray of laughter among the darkness”

“A ray of laughter among the darkness”

I loved how journalist Shlomo Ben David described Vitch in the Israeli newspaper Maariv (January 24th). Although it was a brief article, it was one of the best written on the movie. Along with a photograph of a smiling Eddie Vitch standing on stage surrounded by glamorous, bare-legged dancers, he wrote “Vitch is a completely different narrative of that brutal time period than the one we are familiar with, informed by humor, humanity, artistic talent, and astonishing courage.”  

 

 

Mill Valley Film Festival – Vitch

Mill Valley Film Festival – Vitch

Vitch loved California: he loved the beach, the food, the studios, the stars… he felt there at home. He would have been over the moon if he knew that the movie about him was selected to be screened at the Mill Valley Film Festival, one of the top ten film festivals in the USA!
