Quintessential Comedy | Devoted to British Comedy

German filmmaker Uwe Boll has bemoaned the lack of US cinemas picking up his 9/11 comedy Postal, which was due to screen in 1500 cinemas in the States this Friday but will see the light of day in around 13.

Of course let’s just have a look at the evidence: anyone with anything new to add to the 9/11 national security disaster is instantly silenced, so why did Boll think that his movie - apparently a Python-esque affair - would be treated any differently?

“They don’t like the political content. This is my personal feeling after trying for four or five weeks to get the distributors to book it. It’s a ruthless comedy and makes jokes about September 11 and all kinds of stuff, but at the same time I feel like it’s my best-received movie so far.”

“People were laughing their asses off,” said Boll, who will distribute the movie himself. “It works very well for the young male audience. It’s a Monty Python kind of comedy, and I think that kind of product is missing right now because of political correctness.”

Best of luck with the distribution - I expect this will be a much sought after movie in years to come, achieving cult status and finaly making back some money.  Perhaps non-USA countries will appreciate it?
