SNEAK PREVIEW: Philadelphia
Film Festival
Universal Signs participated in the
2008 Philadelphia Film Festival as a special screening/sneak
preview. We were overjoyed that audiences (Deaf and
hearing) turned out in droves to see the film waiting
in lines around the block to gain admission. Universal
Signs sold-out both sneak preview screenings, one of
which was in a 460-seat theater, the festival’s
largest venue.

The audiences had an overwhelming positive response
to the film, and Universal Signs, despite not
being eligible for jury awards because of its sneak preview
status, took home the Audience Award for Best
Feature Film with a ballot score of 4.66 out of a possible 5.
At the Philadelphia Film Festival last year, this same
award was won by La Vie En Rose, which went on to win
the Oscar® for Best Actress.
