Movie fans. I’ve got a couple of BIG STONE GAP prize packs to give away…but before you can enter my contest…check out the news below.
PICTUREHOUSE TO RELEASE ‘BIG STONE GAP’ IN HOUSTON WITH NOVEMBER 6 EXPANSION
Houston, TX—November 2, 2015— Following the film’s national release on October 9, Picturehouse is expanding BIG STONE GAP into additional Texas markets with a November 6 release.
Opening theaters in Houston include:
Edwards Greenway 24
AMC First Colony 24
AMC Studio 30
Santikos Silverado Stadium 19 (Tomball)
BIG STONE GAP was written and directed by best-selling author Adriana Trigiani (The Shoemakers Wife) with an all-star cast led by Ashley Judd and featuring Patrick Wilson, Whoopi Goldberg, John Benjamin Hickey, Jane Krakowski, Anthony La Paglia and Jenna Elfman.
Adriana Trigiani, in her debut as screenwriter/director, brings her best-selling novel BIG STONE GAP to the movies. Shot entirely on location in Trigiani and Wilson’s hometown in the southwest corner of Virginia and set in 1978, the film brings to vivid life the story of proud working people and their lives in a coal-mining town nestled in the Appalachian Mountains.
The movie was produced by Academy Award winner Donna Gigliotti (SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK,) and James Spies. The cinematography is by Reynaldo Villalobos. The original music is by John Leventhal. Costumes are by Debra McGuire. Executive producers are J.E.Craig and Jean Morrissey.
Set in 1978, BIG STONE GAP tells the story of the ever-ordinary Ave Maria Mulligan (Ashley Judd) who lives a simple life with her mother, runs the pharmacy, directs The Trail of the Lonesome Pine Outdoor Drama, and hopes that Theodore Tipton, her best friend and the high school band director will take their platonic friendship in a romantic direction. Ave Maria waits, and before she knows it, she turns 40. Now the old maid of Big Stone Gap, Ave Maria decides that happiness is for other people – that is, until a long-buried family secret throws her quiet life spectacularly off-course.

As you may, or may not, know…my dad, Hank Trujillo, passed away unexpectedly on May 20, 2015. He was a Vietnam veteran, who was actively involved with the Transport Workers Union Veterans Committee. This particular committee dedicated a lot of their time traveling to help all military members, Veterans and their families.
One organization that was dear to my dad’s heart was Operation Military Embrace. Operation Military Embrace is a non-profit military support organization that provides new items to severely wounded soldiers and their families via donations. This drive takes place in December, right before the holidays. He, and the rest of the committee (his second family) would travel to San Antonio, Texas to help out with the donations and to visit these families.
We were honored to learn that Operation Free PX was renamed in my dad’s honor beginning this year. It is now known as ‘Hank Trujillo Memorial Free PX.’ As I mentioned, this donation drive was very dear to my dad’s heart, and I’d like to try and get them some extra donations this year.
Please feel free to share this post wherever you can, and tell your friends and family about it. You can visit the links below for more information regarding items that are needed.
For new donated items, please see your Veterans Committee Representative (you can contact me via email for this information) for shipment or send to the TWU ATD office at:
TWU ATD
1791 Hurstview Drive
Hurst, TX 76054-3430
Monetary donations can be donated online by going to the OME website above through their PayPal portal.
Checks can be made payable to OME and sent to:
Operation Military Embrace
P.O. Box 149
Hockley, Texas 77447-0149
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this! If you do happen to make a donation to the organization (and I hope you do), please make sure to include that your donation is in memory of Hank Trujillo.

IN THEATERS DECEMBER 4

All hell breaks loose as beloved holiday icons take on a monstrous life of their own, laying siege to the fractured family’s home and forcing them to fight for each other if they hope to survive.
