GAF Adds Two Movie Premieres to Their August Lineup

Global Arts Foundation (GAF) has announced the addition of two new movie premieres to their August lineup, showcasing their continued commitment to promoting both established and emerging talents in the film industry. This exciting news comes at a time where movie lovers are eager to experience new stories and perspectives on the big screen.

The first movie set to debut is a drama titled "Under the Bridge," directed by up-and-coming filmmaker, Morgan Ellis. The film follows the story of a young woman navigating her way through life in the underbelly of New York City. Ellis' intense storytelling and the film's gritty visuals promise to provide audiences with a captivating cinematic experience.

The second film is a romantic comedy entitled "Love and Lemonade," directed by renowned filmmaker, Samantha Connor. Known for her heartwarming and humorous storytelling, Connor's latest film revolves around a small-town lemonade stand owner who unexpectedly falls in love with a cosmopolitan businessman. The film boasts a star-studded cast and is expected to be a late-summer hit.

The inclusion of these two films in GAF's August lineup reinforces the organization's dedication to promoting a diverse range of cinematic voices. It also provides a platform for new filmmakers like Ellis to showcase their unique perspectives and storytelling abilities.

"We are thrilled to add 'Under the Bridge' and 'Love and Lemonade' to our August program," said Alex Thompson, GAF's Director of Programming. "Our goal is to present films that not only entertain but also provoke thought and conversation. We believe both of these films do just that."

GAF's August lineup will also include a variety of other films from various genres, promising a film for every type of moviegoer. From action-packed thrillers to insightful documentaries, the programming aims to cater to a wide spectrum of cinematic tastes.

The premieres of "Under the Bridge" and "Love and Lemonade" will take place at GAF's flagship theater. Tickets for both films, as well as the entire August lineup, will be available for purchase on GAF's website starting next week.

The Global Arts Foundation continues to enhance its reputation as a leading player in the film industry, providing a platform for diverse voices and stories. With a commitment to showcasing a broad range of films, from blockbusters to indie gems, GAF is a must-visit destination for all film aficionados.

As movie theaters continue to regain their footing following the challenges of the past year, GAF's exciting August lineup, headlined by these two premieres, is a testament to the enduring power and appeal of cinema.

Great American Family just added two movies to their August schedule.

First up, is As Gouda as it Gets - starring Kim Shaw and Clayton James. The movie is set to air Saturday, August 23rd, at 8pm/7c.

This movie has been seen on various streaming services and BYUtv.

Storyline: Brie Belanger is the maître fromager and owner of Brie’s Cheese, a cute artisan cheese shop located in picturesque Vermont. Looking to boost her business presence and sales, the town’s annual Cheese Festival arrives just in time with a $50,000 first-place prize. Up against her biggest competitor, Brie’s vintage smoked gouda is considered a frontrunner-so much so that Jacob Wolfe, a former chef and influential cheese blogger, approaches about profiling her delectable creation, leading their friendship to take a turn for romance. Complications arise when Matt Lambert, the handsome and charismatic new CEO of Lambert Farms (and Brie’s largest competitor) starts to show his interest in acquiring her shop. Racing against the clock and a disastrous power failure, Brie and Jacob must recreate a prize-worthy entry if she has any hope of keeping her shop and potentially winning more than she initially hoped for.

Here's a review that was shared from a great It's a Wonderful Movie friend:

Movie Review:

"I'm glad that I recorded it. Happily, what was missing was the bickering as in Christmas on the Menu. That was nice to see and with no back story to overcome." ~Namegirl

(Note: Namegirl referred to the Lifetime movie, Christmas on the Menu, since Kim Shaw and Clayton James also starred in that holiday film together.)

The second film airing in August on Great American Family is The Wedding Arrangement, starring Kristina Cole Geddes and Cody Griffis.

The movie will air Saturday, August 30th, at 8pm/7c. on GAF and is currently streaming on PureFlix.

Storyline: When botanist Violet needs help with a wedding floral arrangement, nature photographer Jack comes to save the day as they bond over a mythical plant.

And, of course, the new series "Crossroad Springs" will begin airing at the end of August, on Sunday, the 31st.
