Sat. Oct. 22, 2011 - Morning, afternoon & evening "Meet Faith Granger and See her Deuce of Spades '32 Ford roadster" Faith Granger, who produced, directed and starred in the film "Deuce of Spades" that was seen by Daytona Beach Dream Cruise attendees in 2009 & 2010 in test screenings, will be here with her great hot rod, also a star of the film, for everyone to meet. She and her car will be in the 2400 to 2700 block of A1A morning and afternoon. She will also be in the area for Daytona Beach Dream Cruise fans to meet her and see her car Saturday evening at a location to be determined later. When you meet Faith, you'll be able to purchase the "Deuce of Spades" DVD and get her to sign it. This is a terrific opportunity since the "Deuce of Spades" DVD wasn't yet available in 2009 and 2010. Look for the "Deuce of Spades" exhibit. Sun. Oct. 23, 2011 - 10:00 am - 3:00 p.m. "Meet Faith Granger and See her Deuce of Spades '32 Ford roadster at the Blue Grotto Blast" Faith Granger, who produced, directed and starred in the film "Deuce of Spades" that was seen by Daytona Beach Dream Cruise attendees in 2009 & 2010 in test screenings, will be here with her great hot rod, also a star of the film, for everyone to meet and see, at Blue Grotto, the wonderful location in downtown Daytona Beach where her film was seen the past two years. When you meet Faith, you'll be able to purchase the "Deuce of Spades" DVD and get her to sign it. This is a terrific opportunity since the "Deuce of Spades" DVD wasn't yet available in 2009 and 2010. Look for the "Deuce of Spades" exhibit.
The terrific "DEUCE OF SPADES" hot rod movie was brought back for enjoyment of car enthusiasts at the Daytona Beach Dream Cruise on Saturday night, Oct. 23, 2010 at the same venue where the world's initial test screening was hosted in 2009. This was an amazing opportunity to participate in the last test screening before release, and get a sneak peek at this soon-to-be-classic film. Great feedback from the Daytona Beach audience following 2009's initial test screening guided filmmaker Faith Granger in completing her editing of the film and many of our suggestions were incorporated. Faith was thus excited to share with the 2010 Daytona Beach Dream Cruise audience her nearly finalized results (non-final footage and non-final production sound) for one last test screening. Car enthusiasts at the 2010 Daytona Beach Dream Cruise were the only audience to ever see this version. Deuce of Spades was released later in 2010 following addition of the theatrical 5.1 surround sound mix.
Another Deuce of Spades treat for Daytona Beach Dream Cruise attendees in 2010 was the opportunity to meet Timothy Luke, the great young actor who plays Johnny Callaway in Deuce of Spades. Everyone who met Timothy was impressed and he posed for tremendous numbers of photos both Saturday and Sunday. He arrived before Saturday evening's final test screening in a vintage hot rod and viewed the film that night with the adoring audience in the midst of a phenomenal display of some of the finest '32 Fords ever assembled. Sunday, at the final gathering of the 2010 Daytona Beach Dream Cruise, Timothy even drew the names of winners of super door prizes courtesy of NPD, and he also drew the names of the ten lucky winners who each went home with $100.00 cash, courtesy of Blue Grotto.
Now, great news for 2011 Daytona Beach Dream Cruise attendees. Faith Granger, filmmaker, and driving force behind the Deuce of Spades movie (she produced and directed the film and handled many other critical aspects of producing it) and also had a starring role in the film) confirmed Aug. 13th that she will personally attend this year's Daytona Beach Dream Cruise on Saturday, Oct. 22 & Sunday, Oct. 23. See Schedule page of this web site for more details regarding where and when you'll be able to meet her and see her car, the "Deuce of Spades" hot rod that also stars in her film.
