The movie was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I was very young and this was my first movie experience. The posse was closing in on Redford and Newman who were trapped on top of a 100-foot high rock ledge that dropped off into the raging river below. To make matters worse, Sundance couldn’t swim! All seemed hopeless. Then, the jump—it was exhilarating. The audience laughed, gasped, and cheered, all at the same time. I was in awe. This image stuck with me. That’s the power of great storytelling. And that’s the fascination that movies have held for me my entire life.
Angelina Pictures was born out of the idea that without a great story, you have nothing, regardless of the medium. Whether it’s a feature film for families, a television series for kids, a commercial for a new car, or an industrial video for a telecommunications company, great storytelling creates a connection with your audience. That’s what we specialize in at Angelina Pictures. Our team has jumped from the ledge many times, but fortunately, we all know how to swim and we always use a harness. Each project we do is as exhilarating for us as that jump back in 1974.
