An exhilarating buildup is in effect while Juan Pablo Di Pace works his movie ‘Before We Forget’ into Los Angeles this weekend. The actor/writer/director posted a video message urging the fans to catch the film on the big screen at Laemmle Noho 7, where he promises special Q&A sessions with distinguished moderators.

Fresh from New York, where it debuted to rapturous critical acclaim, the film is being marketed as an experience cinema-goers can’t miss. Di Pace, who literally gloated over the acclaim, calling it “‘a movement for the cinema.’”
There has been a great wave of approval from the fans. One attendee of the NYC premiere stated, “The NYC premiere and the Q&A were amazing!! Don’t miss seeing this beautiful movie LA!” While one lauded Devin Doyle’s cinematography, the other sung praises for Di Pace as writer, director, and star.
International fans are abuzz with excitement, yet others are bemoaning their being miles away from the screenings. “I want to watch your movie! Kisses from Brazil,” wrote one Brazilian follower, while another from Argentina was hopeful that it would reach them on time. A fan called Di Pace a hottie and wished she lived closer.
However, some dissent here and there is only fine. That mysterious and oddly phrased well-wishing, “All the best… unfortunately some countries are NOT good enough!” has left many scratching their heads in confusion.
The screenings will be running every day from Friday to Monday in LA, with Di Pace keeping things under wraps by hinting that he’s going to reveal who the Q&A moderators are soon. Meanwhile, a fan just said this: Her friend has seen it twice already, and each time it just gets better.”
Meanwhile, a hopeful soul from Tampa Bay begged Di Pace to bring it to her town because she’s “probably the only person who hasn’t seen it yet.”
With this much hype, Before We Forget is ready to take LA by storm, and a weekend such as this could very well be the perfect time for all Di Pace lovers and indie cinema lovers alike to grab a ticket and see what all the fuss is about.
