Christian & Chris have made an amazing documentary that will bring most to tears. While you may not enter the theater knowing Nick O'Neill and his family, you will leave feeling like you were a friend of the family sharing in their pain and celebration of the young artist.

I expected nothing less than an amazing film when Christian first began to describe the premise of "41". After getting to see the final product, his words could do it no justice. The almost eerie trends of Nick's obsession with the number 41 and how it plays throughout his life and afterlife is at times breathtaking.

I was honored to be able to attend the RI Premiere and I hope the film continues to gain acclaim and accolades, just deserved. People need to see this documentary. There are universal themes that will touch us all.

Summers in Rhode Island were all about that trip to Rocky Point. While I didn't know some of the really cool historical facts about the park (like the first Presidential phone call occurring there), there were so many pieces of the film that rang so true. To this day, the smell of gear grease on mechanical devices like escalators brings me right back to the House of Horrors. How many times did we end up in pain from the Rock N Roll's lap belt and swear we'd never go on it again, only to get back in line at the next park visit? The Corkscrew, the Cyclone, the Flume... it was nice to see some of our old childhood friends still bringing excitement to people.
