Four Lions Wins the Audience Award at LA FilmFest

They're big in LA.

By Jason Apuzzo. We’re very pleased to report that Chris Morris’ striking new comedy Four Lions, which I reviewed last week here at LFM (I absolutely loved it), has won the audience award for best narrative feature at the recently completed Los Angeles Film Festival.

I’m not surprised by this, given the audience’s overwhelmingly positive reaction in the screening I attended – but at the same time I’m thrilled to learn that the film won this important award.  This will certainly boost the film’s chances for securing a distribution deal here in the U.S.

Best wishes to whole team behind Four Lions, and we’ll keep everyone here at LFM updated on when and where you can see this extraordinary film.

  1. That is great news Jason. Good to know that others have found merit in a film that you were promoting on this site. Let’s hope they get a widespread distribution deal in the US. Would be fun to see this film and “Kalifornistan” showing together…

  2. This film seems pretty damn entertaining. I don’t know why people are freaked out about the accents. For an indie/art house crowd this should play pretty well, though of course its politics may be a problem for some people.

  3. Let’s see if this gets distribution. If it doesn’t, then we know how far the PC-crowd is willing to go to block a film that might make money.
