Hollywood With Disabilities plays a big role in this year's Beverly Hills film Festival

21st Century “Ironside/Lethal Weapon ” is Beverly Hills Film Festival's Top Pick for Golden Palm Award for Best Screenplay.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Mar 30, 2009 – Start with a detective story that has the bite and character enough to carry it’s own, add a little romance, lots of astonishing action, include a cameo appearance by veteran actors most “A” list  and then get “Excellent” as a lead line in multiple film and critic reviews and you’ll wind up with what? Top pick for the Golden Palm Award presented by this year’s Beverly Hills Film Festival.

Forget what you know about people with a disAbility that use a wheelchair. “London Time”, the film, featuring Detective (whose first name remains a mystery only to his parents) London is a modern day, 21st century “Ironside” who completely dispels modern day stereotypes and misconceptions of the physically challenged. Even more in this version is that London’s actions completely surprise his police colleagues, the bad guys and the general public.

As if his “old school” approach to police work and his distain for “tech toys” were not enough, London’s dislike for the news media is only matched by the fame that television has brought to forensic science, now more commonly known as Crime Scene Investigations (CSI). And because London also takes every given opportunity to express his controversial opinions and authority verbal darts, he has turned from a Public Relation’s dream, a returning police officer with a major disability, to a nightmare for the city’s Mayor and Chief of Police as they conspire to downplay London during this their election year.

Given praise for its “personality,” “accuracy” and “enlightenment”, London Time is a film for all who appreciate fine film making, a great story and the human experience. Whether it’s the fine tuned seasoned experience of a wheelchair useing crime fighter, who lost his full mobility in a horrific car crash that cost him his wife and child as well, or his young female “new style” forensic scientist partner, this movie dumps the unfounded and misguided stereotypical labels and pigeonholing while delivering on some good ol’ fine detective work and doing rid to well deserving high profile criminals and conspirators.
