At the NYC premiere of 'The Crusaders'

Last Thursday night saw the NYC premiere of "The Crusaders" at the Village East by Angelika on Second Avenue and 12th Street. 

This is the first film for Maxx Starr (below right with Jahmal Kirwan aka Manhattan Mal), co-owner of Fun City Tattoo on St. Mark's Place, who wrote and directed the short (24-minute) crime noir filmed entirely in the East Village. (International Bar on First Avenue and Nublu Classic on Avenue C served as locations for several scenes.)
EVG contributor Stacie Joy was at the premiere as moviegoers and other guests waited to enter the auditorium...
Members of the cast were present, including the two leads — Tessa Gourin...
... and Frederick Rusak...
Other cast members include Jerry Dean, Skam Dust, Peter Greene, Sophia Lamar, Santiago Melchiorre, Christopher Ponds and Neko White. 

The film was screened in the large auditorium — the Jaffe Art Theatre...
