Cut Poison Burn opened to a full house on the West Coast and an extremely engaged audience. A spirited Q&A afterwards with film subject Donna Navarro and writer/executive producer Lou Cimino raised the many emotional and political issues surrounding cancer treatment in the US.  Audience reaction was intense at times – some were moved to tears and gasps of shock during the movie. Many shared personal anecdotes, statements of support, and an eager interest in activism during the Q&A session.   Notable attendees included:  Dr. Soren Nielson, Cancer Smart; Robert Charles Hunter - Chairman of Exxcell Entertainment;  Shane Ellison – The People’s Chemist;  and Lorraine Rosenthal – Director of The Cancer Control Society;  which also benefited from the screening.

Can you make a feature film based on a YouTube clip?  You can if that clip was a viral phenomenon, it was hysterically funny, and people thought it was real. Here’s a link to the original clip:

If you just saw it you’re one of the more than 100 million people who have. Chloe and Keith’s Wedding, a quirky romantic comedy, starts off where the best man falling in the pool ends. If you love love, weddings, slapstick, romantic comedies, and are addicted to viral internet phenomena – Chloe and Keith’s Wedding will make you smile. And if you hate weddings – it will have you howling.

Following the rousing success of its NY film premier, Cut Poison Burn will be shown at a special So Cal screening event on Monday, Sept. 26th at 7:30pm. The event will include live Q & A with the filmmakers and Jim and Donna Navarro. Celebrity advocates and experts in the healthcare industry are also expected. The film is attracting international attention and increasing online discussion. Nehst’s town hall-style event screenings are a great place watch, learn, and communicate about the topic of integrative medicine, medical freedom and the need for change.

Cut Poison Burn is a feature length documentary. An indictment of the pharmaceutical-medical-government “axis” that incestuously profits from cancer, CPB stirs controversy, and whatever you think of it, raises critical questions. The heartbreaking story of the Navarros and their son Thomas, trying in vain to get the treatment they choose for their son is both touching and infuriating.
