(Detroit, MI, August 1, 2011) “CornerStore” is a new comedy, recently filmed in Detroit by Joe Doughrity. It chronicles one eventful summer day at a convenience store on Detroit’s Six Mile Road. Owned by the Jenkins family, the store is operated by Earl, a handsome, middle class, full-time father of 2 young adults--his son Gerard, an aspiring chef, and daughter Gail, a fun-loving yet sneaky twenty-something. The eccentric customers are the real stars of this PG-13 (pending) rated comedy. From winos to gangsters, thieves to neighborhood kids, a LOT can happen on the corner. The film features Roger Guenveur Smith ("American Gangster", "Deep Cover" & "Do the Right Thing"); Judge Mathis (native Detroiter, TV star); Trick Trick (rapper, member of Puremichigan.org campaign); Dwele (R&B star, native Detroiter) and has a special guest appearance by Tommy Hearns (boxing champion, native Detroiter). Interview opportunities are available and welcomed for both cast and crew. We can provide high resolution photos and the trailer as needed for media use. We will be hosting panel discussions with the cast and crew after the screenings on topics ranging from “how to break into the film business to How to create a feature film under $100, 000. The film has received terrific support across the country. CornerStore has played in a number of film festivals and recently won the Best Detroit Comedy Award at the Detroit-Windsor International Film Festival, June 2011 http://bit.ly/dwiff. CornerStore was produced by Shotown Pictures in association with Global Pictures.
