World's first Internet movie premiere

7 September 2003 11:22 by Jari Ketola | 1 comment

"This Is Not a Love Song", a movie from the film writer Simon Beaufoy ("The Full Monty") was, at least according to UK Film Council, the first ever "major" movie to premiere on the Internet when it began screening on Friday.

However the huge media attention received by the movie caused the download website at ThisIsNotaLoveSong.com to overload, and the downloads have temporarily been suspended. It should be available to the public again in a couple of days.

The movie costs £2-3 (pounds sterling), and can only be downloaded and viewed on a PC equiped with Windows operating system and Windows Media Player 9. It is also only available to UK residents.

Hmmm..... I would rather just go and watch it in a theatre or cinema. Well, actually, I wouldn't watch this though. :P
When you are on your deathbed, you will wonder, "Did I waste my life? Was it worth spending all that time on that?" Do not despair, no one has wasted their life. After all, you can only waste something if you throw it away. And you can't throw life away.
