"DEATH OF A DYNASTY," DIRECTOR DAMON’S DASH’S WRY AND COMICAL MOCKUMENTARY, TO OPEN APRIL 29TH IN NEW YORK AT THE LOEWS CINEPLEX STATE 4
(April 4th, 2005, Los Angeles, CA) – Death of a Dynasty, Damon Dash’s fascinating and acclaimed mockumentary will open from TLA Releasing on April 29th in New York at The Loews Cineplex State 4 (1540 Broadway, located in the basement level of the Virgin Megastore). In the spirit of This is Spinal Tap, Death of a Dynasty offers a funny and satirical look behind the closed doors of Damon Dash’s and Jay-Z’s hip-hop empire.
Shot in New York City, Death of a Dynasty centers on Dave Katz (Moss-Bachrach), a journalist at a hip-hop magazine who is sent on assignment to uncover the often-comedic underworld of Roc-a-Fella Records run by Damon Dash (producer of The Woodsman) and Jay-Z (Fade to Black). Dave believes he is a member of the Roc-a-Fella team and privy to the daily "goings on" at one of the world’s hottest record companies. Although he is actually "two timing" the magazine (feeding sordid gossip items about the feuding partners to local gossip columns), the journalist thinks he is a real "playa" only to later find out that he is the one being played.
With celebrity cameos including Chloë Sevigny, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Loraine Bracco, Carson Daly, Walt Frazier, Flavor Flav, Peter Sarsgaard, Rashida Jones, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z and RUN-D.M.C. among many others, Death of a Dynasty is co-written by Damon Dash and Adam Moreno, produced Steven Beer, and directed by Damon Dash. The film will open in New York and nationwide on April 29th.
The following all-media screening is available:
Monday, April 18th, 7:30PM, The Apollo Theatre
(253 West 125th Street, between Adam Clayton Powell Blvd. and Frederick Douglass Blvd.)
