Harriet’s Video of the Day

Raves, Rants, Reviews

“So enjoying your CD. I love the way you write and deliver a song. What a gift. Thank you so much for being in the world to tell us these stories through song.” — Nita Whitaker LaFontaine

“Your music and songwriting have inspired me to become the person I am today.” — Alexzandra, Stockholm, Sweden

“Just wanted to say I enjoyed your CD concert immensely. Your tender, sensitive and spontaneous rendition of all your material was a remarkable example of your rare talents. A real treat for me.” — Dana White

“Lada and I wish to Congratulate you on the Awesome Lyrics for the StarKey Song! We were overcome with JOY hearing you sing the special words you chose. You’re truly Wonderful, Harriet!” — Matthew and Lada

“In Yiddish theatre, which is referenced in the play we do together, audience members were told they could get their money back if they didn’t both laugh and cry at the performance. No one would have asked for their money back after your CD release concert.” — David Proval

“The listener is allowed into deeply personal-universal places and leaves with greater understandings of him/her-self as well as you and the subjects you write about. You really love people, and that's very cool!” — Leslie Welles

“Harriet’s a brilliant comedian who introduces each of her songs with a hilarious, bracingly honest back story that gives the people in the dark a little insight on how great songs are created.” — Julie Davis

“It’s really brilliant how you came up with these [songwriting] steps. Just a great, GREAT, idea.” — Denise Rosier

“Even stronger than my desire to write songs is my gratitude to be able to work on it at this point in my life. You have kept me going and are the best teacher I ever had or will have.” — Marian Weiner

“I learned that my most powerful songs truly do come from my real life experiences and that when I share my feelings, in song, I am able to heal myself.” — Cynthia Land

Hollywood Town doc streaming!

Here is some information the director, Tom Solari sent to all the backers. There are some of my friends and fans who supported the making of the documentary for years who have never seen the film. Now you can! I'd love to hear from you!

From Tom Solari:

FAWESOME.TV has licensed "HOLLYWOOD TOWN - The Harriet Schock Story!"

This is an ad-supported streaming service that delivers movies directly to viewers over the internet, free of charge. Here a link to see our film (91 minutes):

https://fawesome.tv/movies/10692250/hollywood-town-the-harriet-schock-story

The movie starts playing immediately and, for SOUND, the Audio button, in the lower left corner of the screen, will likely need to be clicked on right away.

Then, on the lower right corner there is a Captions button (CC), if needed, and a button to enlarge it to Full Screen.

Being ad-supported, it means there will be ads during the screening and we can presume that, at some point, there will be some revenue streaming to us.

FESTIVALS

That said, it's evident that we have to take actions to make the presence of "HOLLYWOOD TOWN" more broadly known, so we will soon be entering multiple FILM FESTIVALS via FilmFreeway.com, which has all the info on festivals.

If you have direct contact with people involved in certain film festivals, let us know. Personal connections really help.

And, if you watch the film on Fawesome.TV, we'll be interested to know how you liked it, how many ads were run and the nature of the ads as well.

I can be reached at solaricomm@gmail.com.

As a reminder of what this is about, here is our TRAILER:
https://vimeo.com/1072718024

And here is the AUDIENCE REACTION after a screening:
https://vimeo.com/1036212637

We'll continue to keep you posted as things develop.

All the best,

Tom Solari
