ronald: they're having the world premiere outside of Hollywood because the company that financed If Only had a great deal with a major studio that would have given the movie a big U.S. release this past fall, and a big Hollywood premiere ... but the company completely screwed up the deal (I have posted this before, but I can't say more than that about the specifics, as I promised my source I wouldn't). Anyway, the company has been scrambling to make up for its huge mistake ever since ... that's why they're selling foreign rights first. This world premiere in Florida in January is a positive step. It's not the biggest film festival in the country, but If Only gets to be the opening night film (a lot of prestige to that), plus JLH gets to sing live at the party. This movie will get much more attention being the "star" of a festival like this, rather than just one of many films at Cannes, etc. If all goes well, I'm sure it will have its Hollywood premiere at some point next year. :D
