Film Marketing Review - The One About 'Nightcrawler'
Manage episode 375588356 series 3497870
In this extract from 'Two Geeks And A Marketing Podcast' Pascal Fintoni and Roger Edwards look back at this dark satire about 24h news channels directed by Dan Gilroy and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rene Russo, Bill Paxton and Riz Ahmed.
The approach to marketing 'Nightcrawler' is so entrepreneurial and almost matches the 'create your own luck' mindset adopted by the character Lou played Jake Gyllenhaal.
From early screening of incomplete work in order to attract interest from distributors to ingenious viral marketing strategies, including a fictional video résumé on Craigslist and fake social media profiles for Louis "Lou" Bloom, and so much more!
