Phoenix, Oregon

“To put it simply — and, yes, gratefully — ‘Phoenix, Oregon’ is the sort of movie a lot of us need right now.”

Variety

New Indie Film Offers “Theatrical-at-Home” Viewing Option

As theaters across the nation are closed, please join us for a virtual movie night to enjoy “the sort of movie a lot of us need right now” (Variety)– a comedy of midlife reinvention and the redeeming power of friendship.

The film was on track to open in theaters today … but the COVID-19 pandemic led the distribution team to pivot quickly to a creative approach: offering an alternative at-home viewing option, while still funneling revenue to theaters.

How does it work?

  • Go to the phoenixoregonmovie.com website and buy a “Theatrical-at-Home” ticket for $6.50.
  • You have the option to choose a theater, or select “no preference”. Revenues will be split with your selected theater, or split with all 17 theaters – either way, your ticket supports a theater!
  • You’ll receive an email with a screening link; click play to watch the film within 3 days. You’ll have 48 hours to watch the film after clicking play.

ABOUT THE FILM
