Hello, this is Dom…

From Vertigo Releasing, the Gus Van Sant thriller – Dead Man’s Wire – will have a cinema release on 20th March. Here’s what they had to say:

On the morning of February 8, 1977, Anthony G. “Tony” Kiritsis, 44, entered the office of Richard O. Hall, president of the Meridian Mortgage Company, and took him hostage with a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun wired with a “dead man’s wire” from the trigger to Hall’s head.

DEAD MAN’S WIRE tells the unbelievable true story of the stand-off that took the world by storm as Tony demanded $5 million, no charges or prosecution, and a personal apology from the Halls for cheating him out of what he was “owed.” 

Directed by Academy Award® nominated filmmaker Gus Van Sant. 

Starring Bill Skarsgård, Dacre Montgomery, Cary Elwes, Myha’la, Academy Award® nominee Colman Domingo and Academy Award® winner Al Pacino.

Many thanks to Alternate Current and Vertigo Releasing for providing the images above.

Dom.

For John.
