			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Vicky &amp; Sam&#8221; receives fantastic accolades from <a href="http://zacuto.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Steve Weiss</a> and <a href="http://philipbloom.net/" target="_blank">Philip Bloom</a> on their show &#8220;Critics&#8221;.  That is, after Phil slams it in all aspects then reveals that he loves it so much it sets a new bar for standards.  The blog and gear resource, <a href="http://zacuto.com/" target="_blank">Zacuto.com</a>, has hundreds of thousands of filmmaker followers around the world.  <a href="http://www.zacuto.com/featured-filmmaker-nuno-rocha" target="_blank">Nuno Rocha</a>, the Director for Vicky &amp; Sam, also received the &#8220;Z-KUDOS&#8221; award, which is not a commonly passed out acknowledgement for Steve Weiss.  Praising films in their entirety is also not common, as Steve and Philip are honest and genuine in their critiques.  They dont take filmmaking lightly.</p>
<p>The full film is unavailable on the web while it makes it&#8217;s festival rounds.  Currently, it has been accepted to 44 film festivals internationally.</p>
<p><strong>Here is a short clip of the &#8220;Critics&#8221; episode with just Steve &amp; Philip&#8217;s critique of &#8220;Vicky &amp; Sam&#8221;:<br />

<p>Vicky &amp; Sam is a story about three writers who discover that their stories are being played out in real time.  The lead characters, Vicky and Sam, enter the diner, exactly as described in the writer&#8217;s brainstorm session.  As the three writers toy with the concept of two real people doing whatever they declare, of course they get out of hand and danger ensues.  I play a writer.  The two other writers, my co-stars, are played by <a href="http://www.facebook.com/eugenechristopher" target="_blank">Daniel Moore</a> and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/lukebradleyfrancis" target="_blank">Luke Francis</a>. Definitely check them out!</p>
<p>The film is directed by <a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1501724140&amp;ref=mf" target="_blank">Nuno Rocha</a>, a director from Portugal (and, as I find out on set, a magician as well! :)  I recommend checking out his work &#8211; he&#8217;s doing great stuff!</p>
