Patrick Fabian, 2023 SAG Award Nominee for “Better Call Saul,” Leads Timely Cautionary Tale, “The Way We Speak,” from Award-Winning Writer-Director Ian Ebright


Portland, OR, January 20, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)–ย Accomplished actor Patrick Fabian, known for his role as Howard Hamlin in the critically acclaimed AMC series, “Better Call Saul,” will lead an ensemble cast in the upcoming independent narrative feature, “The Way We Speak.” Written and directed by Ian Ebright, the film is an allegory about Americaโ€™s fractured politics and culture. Early drafts of “The Way We Speak” placed in screenplay competitions including BlueCat from Sundance alumnus Gordy Hoffman.

Fabian’s remarkable range and ability to imbue his characters with complexity and depth make him the perfect choice for the role of Simon, an up-and-coming commentator whose world is turned upside down when his best friend and debate opponent suffers a fatal heart attack. Simon refuses to leave the spotlight at the annual thought-leader summit, leading to an obsession with his new opponent and growing rift with his ailing wife. The diverse principal cast includes Diana Coconubo (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) as Simon’s magnetic wife Claire, Kailey Rhodes, Ayanna Berkshire, and Lowell Deo. Berkshire can be seen alongside Daisy Ridley in the Sundance 2023 world premiere, “Sometimes I Think About Dying.”

Ebright is an award-winning writer, director, and producer of films that have aired on PBS and featured in MovieMaker magazine. His debut as writer-director, the Arabic-language narrative short, “From the Sky,” tells the story of a nomadic father and son struggling to cope with U.S. Predator drones patrolling their region of the Middle East. “I am thrilled to have Patrick Fabian as the protagonist of what will be a nuanced and emotional cautionary tale,” Ebright says. “His talent and insight are integral to bringing this multifaceted story to life.”

“The Way We Speak” is set to begin production this month in Portland. The film is produced by Molly Vendettuoli for Broken Telegraph.

Eric Nolan Transitions From R&B Stage to Film Production With ‘Faithful Intentions’ Release

Eric Nolan, a longtime member of R&B group The O’Jays, and Ohio filmmaker James Ford have launched the national release of "Faithful Intentions," an independent feature now streaming on Amazon Prime Video through Silver Line Entertainment, according to a release from JAE Films.

The film is a production of JAE Films, the Youngstown, Ohio-based company Nolan and Ford co-own. Per the release, the company was founded to produce original, character-driven films outside the traditional studio system, and "Faithful Intentions" is described as its most ambitious release to date.

Nolan served as executive producer and one of the film’s story developers, per the release. "Storytelling doesn’t begin or end with music," Nolan said. "Whether it’s a song or a film, you’re trying to make people feel something. Faithful Intentions gave us the opportunity to tell a story that stays with you long after it’s over."

Ford co-wrote, directed and executive produced the film, leading it from development through national distribution, according to the release. "Independent filmmaking demands resilience," Ford said. "Every challenge becomes an opportunity to be more creative. We’re proud of what we’ve built together, and we’re excited that audiences across the country now have the opportunity to experience Faithful Intentions."

The release describes the film’s plot as centered on trust, deception, loyalty and redemption, following characters whose choices carry irreversible consequences.

JAE Films says it has several new projects in development and describes itself as an emerging independent production company based in Youngstown.

Dangerous ‘Graveyard of the Pacific’ Gets Its Story Told in New Film

A new documentary about the Columbia River Bar, the treacherous stretch of water known as the "Graveyard of the Pacific," premieres August 4 on Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV, according to a release from Resonance Productions. The film, "Taming The Mouth," launches on Coast Guard Day, which the release notes was chosen to mark the service’s history of rescue work at the river’s mouth.

The Columbia River Bar, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific, has long been considered one of the most dangerous maritime entrances in the world because of shifting sandbars, unpredictable currents and severe storms, per the release. "Taming The Mouth" covers the nearly 150-year effort to make the passage safer through construction and upkeep of the Columbia River jetty system, and follows U.S. Coast Guard crews who still conduct search-and-rescue operations there today.

The release states the Columbia River system now supports an estimated $24 billion in annual commerce, linking the Pacific Northwest to global trade. The film draws on historic imagery, expert interviews and firsthand accounts from engineers, historians and maritime workers.

"People often don’t realize how much is at stake at the mouth of the Columbia," Bruce Jones, executive director of the Columbia River Maritime Museum, said in the release. "This film helps tell the story of how this dangerous stretch of water was transformedโ€”and why that work still matters today."

Filmmaker Brett Eichenberger of Portland-based Resonance Productions said the documentary is "about resilience, sacrifice, innovation, and the people who have continually risen to the challenge of one of nature’s most powerful forces," according to the release.

The project was supported by the Columbia River Maritime Museum and regional partners including the Port of Vancouver USA, J.E. McAmis and Shaver Transportation, per the release. After its digital release, the film is scheduled to screen next month at the Wild Rivers Film Festival in Brookings, Oregon. Additional community screenings have not yet been announced.
