NYAFF 2012: The Miami Connection Giveaway!

by Matthew Edward Hawkins

As noted already, this upcoming Saturday night’s screening of The Miami Connection is an absolute must not miss cinematic spectacular. And in case my description of a band comprised of orphans that use the power of rock and taekwondo to battle Floridian ninjas on motorcycles wasn’t convincing enough, here’s further proof?

If the above doesn’t prompt you to make a B line to the virtual box office, then you must have horrible taste in movies in general, sorry.

Seriously, if there’s only ONE thing you see at the New York Asian Film Festival this year (which would be a shame, because there are so many legit awesome movies playing this year, some of which I’ve detailed already), Miami Connection is it!

And once again, not only will the movie itself blow your mind, but so will the movie?s co-writer, co-director, fight choreographer, and star, Grandmaster Y.K. Kim. He’ll be on-hand to present a 20 minute long motivational speech/aekwondo demonstration. No joke.

But for those of you still on the fence? how about a complimentary ticket? Drafthouse Films, who will be re-releasing the film later this year, has been kind enough to provide a pair of free passes for me to giveaway! So to secure what is without question the hottest seats this upcoming weekend, all you need to do is:

Email me matt @ fort90.com OR send a tweet to @fortninety, with an explanation as to why TAEKWONDO IS THE VERY BEST!

The person who comes up with the best response will nab the pair and be notified by Saturday July 7 at 12:00 noon. Otherwise, all interested parties can just purchase tickets for 11:15pm screening via The Film Society of Lincoln Center’s website.
