Project Greenlight Finalist Director Allen Martinez Teams up With Milo Ventimiglia (ROCKY BALBOA, GILMORE GIRLS) to Present "Intelligence" a Political Thriller Based on Historical Events.
Hollywood, California -- A special screening will be held on Thursday, January 12th in Hollywood at 6:30 p.m. The event is a private engagement only, open to a few select pre-invited guests, which includes cast and industry talent representatives.
Synopsis: In present day Miami, Collin Mathers (Milo Ventimiglia), follows a hot lead to tie up his feature story and reveal new graphic details found behind closed doors in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. His lead is an elderly man (Bill Bolender) with the story of a lifetime who has much more "intelligence" than Collin could have ever imagined. Milo Ventimiglia being a natural born actor carries the role of the ambitious, young reporter Collin Mather in the most effortless, authentic way possible. Being supported by the experienced and talented Bill Bolender, this feature captivates, taking you to a dark, complex place that most films never get to. Director Allen Martinez's vision along with the team of stars he selected gives this film a strong yet provocative story that exposes a dark corner of American politics. "I found the background of this politically-charged story fascinating, since it is based on true historical events... Many people don't realize that the U.S. Secret Service (O.S.S.) hired Nazi war criminals to monitor the Russians in post war Germany and congress is only just getting to review these newly de-classified documents from over 60 years ago..." says Martinez.
Award-winning director Allen Martinez, breathed life into this cinematic experience. A graduate of the Art Center College of Design, Allen's awards (AICP, ABA and Clio) have put his work inthe permanent archives of the Museum of Modern Art - NY. Soon after, he was invited byexecutive producer Lawrence Bender (Goodwill Hunting, Pulp Fiction) to join Quentin Tarantino's company: A Band Apart. Allen's experience directing commercials has led him towards feature length projects and he was selected by celebrities Matt Damon and Ben Affleckas a top 10 finalist for Project Green Light 2 on HBO.
