Your Stage : Just booked a room at The Seacrest Inn on the Island for May 30th to June 3rd. by Bill Brock

Bill Brock

Just booked a room at The Seacrest Inn on the Island for May 30th to June 3rd.

Sure hope the water's warm. In... my... shower. (You thought I meant 'the ocean,' didn't you?)

Anyway, what an incredible location for a festival! Attended last year and had an amazing time. In case you're wondering, Block Island is located 12 miles off the coast of Rhode Island.  Winners are announced June 2nd.

Dustin Richardson

You're always making good jokes on here Bill Brock lol Good luck to you on your Official Selection. Being selected at a film festival is always a lot of fun.

Stephanie Munch

XD I wish you all the best !

Bill Brock

Thank you, Dustin. My ridiculous sense of humor is the one thing that propels me through Life! Block Island is a GREAT place for a film festival! I attended last year (nominated) and actually won the Lighthouse Award in 2021 for my supernatural thriller, THE DRESS. Thanks again for your kind words. I'll see ya 'round the room! : )

Bill Brock

Thanks so much, Stephanie! WOW! Once in a while this whole "Big Movie Fancy Writin' ' thing actually pays off! : ) Be well, and even though you're a complete stranger, I promise to mention you in my acceptance speech. Yep! I'm THAT weird.

Kevin Oye

good to have sense of humour for sure Bill Brock . I am from Canada, and I spell it "humour"

Stephanie Munch

It's so good to be weird ! Keep us posted !

Sam Mannetti

Congrats and good luck Bill! Block Island is great. Very close to where I like to escape to in the summer.

Niki H

Good luck Bill!

Bill Brock

Agreed, Kevin! A good sense of humOUR is very healthy, but just don't overdo it. Read the room. Don't push. Say the funny line that get off the stage. Allow me to prove my point--

So, Kev, you're from Canada, huh? Hmmmmm, Canada. America's hat.

Bill Brock

Thanks, Niki. It's my 3rd Block Island nomination in a row! I won The Lighthouse Award for my supernatural thriller, THE DRESS, in 2021.Was nominated for my true-life family drama, LIFE OF BRADLEY, in 2022, and now I'm set to return to the island with my psychological thriller, "dream HOLLYWOOD," in 2023!

Would love to win again. It's always nice to have a matching set.

Amanda Toney

Bill Brock - so excited for you! Good luck my friend!

Bill Brock

Thank you, Sam. I love Block Island. In a perfect world, it would be called BROCK Island, but if there's ONE THING all this "Big Fancy Movie Writin' ' has taught me, it's this--

You can't have everything.

QUICK FADE TO BLACK. CUE MUSIC ("Mmmmm Bop" by Hanson). ROLL CREDITS.

Bill Brock

@Amanda Toney Thanks so much, Amanda! I can just see it now. They announce my name. The audience applauds, the clapping dies down, and is replaced by confused murmurs when no one approaches the podium.

PRESENTER

Is Bill here?

SOME GUY IN AUDIENCE

I saw him down at the beach. He was wearing his lime-green Speedos, black tank top, and unlaced Timberland boots with no socks. Working his cigarette and draining his Corona while bad mouthing the country. Want me to go get him?

PRESENTER

Wait. Did you say lime-green Speedos?

SOME GUY IN AUDIENCE

Yeah. And they were like, REALLY small. Like, like, "You could get arrested" small! So? Should I go get him?

PRESENTER

No. Leave him there. Hope he gets arrested. We could use the publicity.

Maurice Vaughan

Congratulations on the nomination, Bill Brock! Have a great time. I hope you win!

Maurice Vaughan

I remember "Mmmmm Bop," Bill Brock! :D

Bill Brock

Ha!!! Thanks, Maurice! I shall do my best...... in stealing the award if I don't win.

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Bill Brock. "in stealing the award if I don't win." See you on the news. :)
