NEW YORK--Right now, if you go to www.BeforeTheBigBreak.com, you can watch an exclusive interview with the Hollywood producer of the film Pretty Woman, Gary W. Goldstein, as he tells the rarely told story of how he found the script, got Julia and Richard attached, and ultimately made one of America’s most beloved films.
“Our mission with this celebrity talk-show is to inspire others to pursue their dreams,” says Mann, 31, the host of Before the Big Break. “Too often, on shows like Letterman and Conan, and even Inside the Actor’s Studio, we hear only about what the guests are doing now; we never hear about the struggles and obstacles they overcame to get there. That’s what we’re doing here: we want to know what they were doing Before the Big Break.”
So far, guests interviewed include tv legend Joe Franklin; Andrew Volpe and Tim Ferrell from the rock band, Ludo; cult-film star Sammy Petrillo; founder of Pandora.com, Tim Westergren; and up now on the site, Gary W. Goldstein. The criteria for being a guest: either you yourself are a star/celebrity or you are the mastermind of or responsible for a project or company becoming a star itself.
”We think we’ve got a unique concept that no one has done before,” says Mann. “We just hope the rest of the world agrees!”
The show is shot independently by Loco Dawn Films, LLC and Unstoppable Artists, LLC, and is available at no charge for viewers at www.BeforeTheBigBreak.com. The production team (Monroe Mann - producer, Phil Malandrino - producer, Greg Cilmi –associate producer, Debbie Bordelon – production assistant, Anthony L. Fletcher - editor, and John Hessel – web editor) are hoping to make a profit from the project by selling unique embedded 10-second ads during each 15 – 20 minute interview segment.
Host of the show, Monroe Mann, is a bronze-star nominated Iraq war veteran who was taken away from the pursuit of his acting, film, and music careers when he was deployed in 2005 to train the 4th Iraqi Army. Mann is the owner of the publicity, management, and coaching firm Unstoppable Artists, the CEO of Loco Dawn Films, the co-author of the Barnes & Noble # 1 bestseller “Guerrilla Networking”, and is currently a 3rd year JD/MBA student.
