‘Shouting Secrets’ gets rave reviews from San Carlos

Globe — Fueled by positive word-of-mouth, the movie “Shouting Secrets” premiered to sold out shows on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at Hollis Cinemas 4 in downtown Globe. Many of the film’s scenes were filmed in Globe and San Carlos, and Native American actors figure prominently in the action.

The reaction to the movie has been so positive that Hollis will show the movie for an additional week, through Thursday, Sept. 27. Showings are daily at 6:30 p.m.

On Friday night after the premiere, The Historic Globe Main Street Program and the Globe-Miami Chamber of Commerce hosted a packed house featuring the film’s actors and townspeople at the historic train depot. The actors also gathered to meet with the public on Saturday night at The Drift Inn.

“The reaction to the film has been amazing,” said director Korinna Sehringer. “It’s rough times for independent movies, and to get a turnout like we had here, with three consecutive sold out shows, that’s — at least to me — almost unheard of.

“The audience response has been just mind-blowing; they laugh out loud and cry and then laugh out loud again. To see this happening after five years of hard work is simply beautiful.

“Friday night’s showing seemed to be mostly people from Globe, but on Saturday and Sunday we had a lot of people from San Carlos. The movie has really exploded out there.”

“Shouting Secrets” enjoyed a successful festival run before officially opening in Globe. It features actors such as Chaske Spencer and Gil Birmingham from the “Twilight” saga; Q’orianka Kilcher from “The New World”; Tyler Christopher from “General Hospital”; and Rodney A. Grant from “Dances With Wolves” and “Wild, Wild West.”

Sehringer describes her film as a “character driven family movie with lots of humor and lots of emotions ... it’s a hopeful and heartwarming, universal story taking place in a Native American family. It’s a story of choices and regrets.”

“Shouting Secrets” continues at Hollis Cinemas 4 through Thursday, Sept. 27 with shows at 6:30 p.m. To buy tickets visit the Hollis box office at 161 N. Broad St. in Globe. Be sure to stay after the show if you go to the show tonight, Sept. 19, as Sehringer will host a question-and-answer sessions after the screening.

The movie has not yet been rated, but Sehringer says it’s probably best for ages 13 and up. She adds that there is no violence or foul language, but there is a short scene of sensuality.
