The Greek Hollywood Reporter!

Neve Campbell & Malcolm McDowell


BrothersEvanlelos and George Giovanis  have scored two big names for their upcoming film, “Bereave.”
The Greek-American filmmakers have enlisted Hollywood legend Malcolm McDowell (“A Clockwork Orange,” “Halloween,” “ A Green Story")  , and actress Neve Campbell (“Party of Five,” “Scream,” “Wild Things”), for the project.

Giovanis Brothers

“Bereave,” which just had its crowd funding campaign launch on Indiegogo, revolves around Garvey, who is struggling with his own mortality and unable to reveal this secret to his family. He thinks he’s figured out how to die alone, but when his beloved wife Evelyn goes missing on their 40th anniversary, he must live to save her. During that short time, Garvey realizes what life still has to offer.

In addition to reaching out for support in producing the project, the crowd funding campaign, which McDowell is also taking part in, benefits CANCER STOMP! Twenty-five percent of proceeds raised will be donated to a cancer research charity (a vote on the organization will be taken at the close of the campaign). Those who contribute can choose from various reward options, including a free copy of the completed DVD, roles in the film, props, and even dinner with Malcolm McDowell, himself.

A Great Love Story.....Bereave!


"Where is the Life we have lost in living?" -

T.S. Elliot
Mr. Elliot, it would be so great to answer: "Hidden inside the art we made."

brief history 

(bear with us please while we bare some):
The only silver spoon the Giovanis brothers were born with, was in the restaurant business. By 12 years old they were bussing tables. By 14 they were telling hooligan customers "the bathroom is out of order." And although they can still make a hell of a pizza; they realized a long time ago that their true passion is filmmaking.

Evangelos Giovanis was rejected by fancy-pants graduate film schools George Giovanis has a Master’s Degree in fun, so he did not bother to apply). In taking the road less traveled by, the Giovanis brothers held hands and plunged into the cold river of filmmaking - learning to swim on the job.


For growing pains and what felt like nasty kicks to the groins: they were conned out of money online for cameras that never arrived (the internet was new then) – but still, how could you "Blue Eyes?" They opened, closed and sold restaurants, worked second and third jobs (some including getting punched in the face!), went bald, lived in 6 different states, created a love/hate relationship with credit cards - all to proudly, self finance their films and their dream! Needless to say they almost bankrupted the family (sorry mom & dad).
Eventually however their socially conscious, award winning, feature films - that have screened at prestigious festivals around the world and racked up awards - reminded critics and audiences of early Scorsese, Tarantino and John Cassavetes.

Our second feature film LAND OF NOD won Best Picture and the Digital Alexander Award at the prestigious Thessaloniki International Film Festival. Our third feature RUN IT won the Gold Award for Best Feature at the Philafilm Festival, Honorable Mention at the Canada International Film Festival, Bronze Palm Award at the Mexico International Film Festival, AND Gold Kahuna at the Honolulu International Film Festival. Our only rule is every film must be better than the last.

That brings us to BEREAVE, a drama/romance script now starring MALCOLM MCDOWELL!!!

We have self-financed our films for 12 years now. This project is the next step. We have many people that believe we are extremely talented, but they will not or cannot finance us. So what do we do?
Quit? Cry? Roll over? I don't think so!

If you are wondering about our luxurious lifestyles, I drive a used car that is 16 years old and I share it with my brother. We share a cell phone. We share a one bedroom apartment. We share our clothes. We share our laptop - much the same way we share this resolve to make our film. The biggest reason is we love each other. The other reason is we have invested our life savings in our art. We certainly have sacrificed and lead by example. If you invest in us, you are investing in a real underdog. We don't have the studios backing us up behind the scenes; that's the bottom line.
We now need a hero (cue the music). But you don't need a costume to help. Just generosity and love of independent films.


Try telling a producer "we don't make movies to make money, we make money to make movies."
Every horror story (creative differences, loss of final cut, casting decisions etc.) you have heard; is true. Cue the violins, but that seems to be the nature of the business. But so what? We can change that together.
You think I'm kidding?

Here is a copy/paste of some of the latest email rejections & comments from credible producers (some names have been omitted):

"You should stop writing meaningful scripts and do a horror script or something commercial damn it. Just do one so we can get our foot in the door." - George Giovanis 

Here is another:
Evangelos -
"I took a look at BEREAVE. It was a well written character piece, but needed a bit more levity brought in. I feel this would cater to the MARIGOLD HOTEL crowd, but the end also felt a bit too downbeat to leave you with as good a feeling. I liked the writing, but felt this would be a bit of an uphill battle commercially speaking for us.
Thank you for sending this my way and please let me know if you have anything else that would fit our mandate."

crowd funding for BEREAVE
Here is another:
"I hope you guys are well. It's been a while since we last spoke. We have tried on this end to figure out what we can do to try to get BEREAVE made. There is potential opportunity to get funding for the film but that would mean that you would have to give up the position of Director."


So what kind of film do we want to make with BEREAVE you ask?

LOGLINE: Struggling with his own mortality and unable to reveal this secret to his family, Garvey thinks he has figured out how to die alone. But when his beloved wife Evelyn goes missing on their 40th anniversary, he must live to save her! In that short time, Garvey realizes what life still has to offer.

Here is a peak into the language, into the world of our film, into the mind of GARVEY who speaks to his muse:

"But if you are stubborn and take care of love constantly, sacrifice your life to it, time will make it so that people say, ‘he must have been so handsome long ago.’ And you will say it too. You will stand there like a tourist in the relics of your flesh; trying to feel love. It will be the strangest, saddest thing."
Sounds interesting? Sounds like something you would watch?
Why stop there?
If you said yes, nodded, or murmured even a small “hmmm,” - help us MAKE this screenplay come to life!
If enough people believe with us and support us; it will happen. We just need to believe it. More importantly you will help make a great independent film that producers refuse to finance because it is not "commercial enough" or it's "artsy."
You will prove to producers and distributors alike, that people still desire to see films about people; stories that blow up hearts, not cars. You will also be fighting cancer! Please look at our CANCER STOMP! perk. We intend to DONATE 25% of that perk to an organization for cancer research.

Malcolm McDowell


You may know Malcolm from A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, HALLOWEEN, THE ARTIST, O LUCKY MAN or another 120 films he starred in!
He has also made over 82 TV appearances in shows such as ENTOURAGE, FRANKLIN & BASH and THE MENTALIST.
Since signing on a few months ago, BEREAVE has become Malcolm's passion project. We all refuse to quit on this story. Malcolm loves our vision, our script and believes in it with all his might - so much so that he has become an Executive Producer and is invested heart and soul... and then some. He even wishes us to direct the thing! If you believe in us like he does, we can achieve everything.

Start and Finish


 
There are a lot of difficulties to overcome when shooting a film. It's impossible to guarantee everything will happen as smoothly as we wish it to, but in the end, we know we will make a beautiful film! See you at the movies! We LOVE YOU!

A True Champion


          A while back, I asked one of my trainers to write a blog on "how to train a winner?".  After a few months of sweat, soreness, kicks, punches, and screaming we have ourselves a WINNER.  It is really not about "winning or losing", it is about training the mind and transforming one's life.   We are excited to let our readers know that we got a fighter/winner/champion in our team.

        Alexander "The Great", 17 years old, has trained at XTC for about five months with George and Angelo, is ready for his first fight.  He is a dedicated young man with a bright future. We, his XTC family, wish him all the best in his new way of LIFE.

Be Happy!



         This weekend I had an encounter with my dear friend, who sounded a little down and I decided to write my blog for those of us who at times are sad, and think the world is against us. 


        Just remember that negative emotions can be toxic.  Prolonged sadness can lead to a state of depression, which can itself be life-threatening.  Depression is linked to the development of heart disease and is a risk factor for heart attacks. Too much fear can cause people to become house-bound, have unrelenting head aches, and develop ulcer and high blood pressure.

        The good news is that positive emotions, including happiness, can transform one’s life. You can’t be too happy.  So if you find yourself in a happy moment, be thankful for it, and hope it continues beyond 25 minutes.  Something as simple as listening to music, hearing birds chirping, watching butterflies float in the air, gazing into the night sky.

        Remember, life is too short not enjoying it…..be happy and transfer  that happiness to others around you, they probably need it as much as you do.

       This “rough” time will come to pass and one day we will look at it and think of it as an amazing experience that made us stronger and better fighters in life.  So my dear friend hold on tight, for the wind will lift you up your sail once again and take you safely to the shore where amazing things awaits you!!!!!

How To Train A Winner?


Muhamand Ali Vs. Sunny Liston 1965

 

How To Train A Winner? By Mr. Giovanis 

 

       Somebody asked me once; “how do you train a winner?”  The immediate response would have to be, “you have to be able to identify a winner.”  Many cosmic things have to go right in order for a trainer and a “winner” to run into each other at the right time and place in a rare and harmonious manner.  But beyond that, and so we don’t take an elitist approach to this very democratic matter, sometimes as a trainer –you have to make somebody a winner.   You have to understand that the pursuit of happiness starts with the pursuit of fitness.  

 

      The most important aspect of training a winner is to train their mind.  But in a world where people are constantly nourished with emotional cliches and their bodies are used to the convenience/comfort of lazy living; it is very difficult.  You might have already tuned out and popped a pill of some sort.Being in shape is “another world.” Initially this world seems unreachable…even with a space ship that takes off in our imaginations and needs no fuel.Broadly speaking, I would say the biggest ingredient of this mission is sweat.  Honesty hides in sweat. 

 

      Start off small, and reduce everything to this quality. In this introduction, I like to learn about the student.  The less they tell me and the more I infer from their behaviors; the easier things become for me.  I look for strengths and weakness and I attack both with tough love.  This is tricky stuff.  Looking at a boxer punch with their arms and hands, it is hard to explain that what we are actually seeing is power coming from their legs.  One way or another, I must make my students believe in me - so they can ultimately believe in themselves…they are looking to me to learn something - not just spend money or act like they are taking a class (those ones drop out quickly).  Making someone believe in themselves, believe that they are truly able to learn what I am truly able to teach, is sometimes difficult because some of the things they are looking to “learn” are already in their DNA; and so a student may not forgive the subtlety of progress - intentionally.  Growth and bigger ordeals are soon to follow and excuses come in handy. 

 

      Being unfit is essentially, and for the most part, a choice - it is a person ignoring the health inside them. The only comfort we have in that scenario is that obesity and unhealthy living are so widespread and so omnipresent in our society - that somehow it makes it OK?  Somehow we are all like greasy chips in a bag instead of people in flesh?  I’m not sure.  All I know is that students can lie to me all day long, but I resent it when they lie to themselves.  I punish them for this.  Eventually, when they work through this “adolescent” mind frame - I make them look into this invisible mirror constantly, to the point of some “gym rat” narcissism; I try to get them to love their image and ultimately the self, this new ego emerging as if a stranger, for there is not much of a greater feeling.

 

      Learning a martial art is a painful process to eradicate this ignorance.  Sometimes putting ignorance in a lock till it taps out, or punching it in the face till it bleeds - is necessary.  Fitness is an unforgiving honesty…one that requires a loyalty, dedication and fortitude that is a basis for this complicated relationship. Try and get your boyfriend or girlfriend to understand that!  Not quite a “voyeur,” but I love to watch the progress in this struggle.  After a while, a student will often get to the point where they “choose” whether or not to continue on the path that leads to the next level of physical enlightenment.  The irony is - and it took me years to figure out - that many quit, right as they reach an easier threshold in this journey.  Why?  Maybe the answer lies somewhere in the details of why they came to the gym to begin with, a type of confusion that might easily be like a tag on a key chain being scanned for absolutely no reason at all.  So in essence, a big part of my job is to try and knock the quit out of them.  It is in this phase where “winners” and “losers” are discovered or promised like diamonds.

 

       As they stick around and put roots into the mat where they jump, kick, punch, grunt, scream, push, lift, resist, fight, befriend, adapt, sweat and breath till they run out of breath; I try to show them that being fit is a two tier system very dependent on a balance and extremely more fragile than it seems – a true mind and body convergence or experience; a type of ecosystem with living and nonliving rewards. 

 

       But so you don’t think it’s all work and no play, I will tell you that I feel it is important to LAUGH.   I try to make my students feel the pain of a good workout but also the joy of laughter in that process.  I give them reasons to be happy and I make them understand that things of this nature take time (this is where you sign up for a 6 month membership). 

 

      Still don’t believe me?  Did you know that laughing burns 1.3 calories/minute while working the muscles of the abdomen, diaphragm, back and shoulders?  That might not seem like much, till you consider that laughing also burns 100 calories/minute of emotional stress.  Always remember that emotional stress causes weight gain (especially around the abdomen).  Working out and becoming addicted to this process of health leads to a laughter that ultimately relieves pain, brings greater happiness, and even increases immunity.

 

      If you enjoyed any, or this entire little essay on “training a winner” please join us at XTC gym.  Whether you like it or not, in reading this, we’ve already begun to exercise your eyeballs.  As a trainer, I’ve come to learn I need to instill all these things to students and people willing to learn - or I feel out of shape.

Well, did you think it was “wax on, wax off” and have them chase a live chicken?

Increase Your Uplifts

How do you increase your uplift?  Simple: You do little things that bring you pleasure.  You don't just wait passively to be uplifted-you make it happen! For example, you can lift your spirits by:


  • Treating yourself to a delicious dessert in the middle of the afternoon.

  • Join a dance class like Zumba and go every week.

  • Spending lunch hour sunning yourself on a park bench.

  • Taking 20 minutes to meditate.

  • Taking time to feed the birds who visit your yard before going off to work.

  • Watching children play.

  • Daydreaming about positive experiences you've ha in the past.

  • Giving yourself permission to have that extra cup of coffee before you join in the "rat race."

  • Enjoying a glass of wine at an outdoor cafe.

  • Listening to some of your favorite songs while driving from point A to point B.

  • Reading a magazine article about something that interests you. 

 

These are the things that you can initiate.  They don't depend on what other people are willing or able to do that might please you.  They are things that you have control over.  Enjoy life, make the best out of each moment, it is the only one we have.

Recognize the Importance of Rituals

 Much of everyday life is made up of rituals-established, predictable, patterned behaviors that structure the day.  There are morning rituals (brushing your teeth, showering, reading newspaper), midday rituals (everything from the so-called "power lunch" to a simple sandwich in your office), and evening rituals (a cocktail or two, dinner at 6:00 pm, a few minutes of intimate time with your spouse, and -if you are lucky---sex).

 

Rituals are a form of structure that actually make life flow more easily.  They are mindless- you do them without thinking. Perhaps most important of all, they orient you as to where you are and what you should be doing.  Rituals are like an invisible watch- if you are taking a shower, it must be morning! Without rituals, every day is a new day full of unpredictability, uncertainty, and the possibility of unhappiness.

 

Here are some examples of what rituals you can incorporate into your life:

  • Exercise first thing in the morning, join a gym with group classes, and make sure the instructors are certified and know their discipline.  Being in a group environment motivates you to keep going, and you have a partner who is accountable.

  • Sitting for a few minutes of quiet contemplation, in meditation or prayer. 

  • Getting a professional massage once a month.  Relieve stress from your body and relax your mind.

  • Browsing through your favorite bookstore every Saturday morning (you gotta hurry before they close them all down)

  • Checking in via email or text with loved ones once a day.

  • Taking an afternoon nap.

  • Enjoying some quality, one-on-one time with your pet.

  • Spending five minutes every day reflecting on all the things you have to be grateful for.  Count your blessings.

Don't become a slave to rituals; otherwise they become tedious.  If something more interesting comes along at the same time you normally take your afternoon nap, go for it!  You can always nap tomorrow.

In the Face of Challenges, Rivise Your Life Plan

Major life challenges and trials disrupt your life and force you to redirect your energies, interests, and commitments.  But how do you do that? It's not easy to revise your life and move into a positive, more satisfying future.  But these steps can get you moving in the right direction:

  • Create a positive mindset by sitting quietly with your eyes closed while opening your mind to the possibility of hope, optimism, and creative behavioral change.  Take ten exaggerated breaths, breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth while silently repeating the word relax each time you exhale.

  • Identify a short list of valued life goals-for example, being closet to your family, becoming a more spiritual person, reconnecting with old friends, and getting in shape. Goals give you a sense of direction in terms of the changes you want to make.  Basically, you are deciding what you want your life to stand for from this point on.

  •  Surround yourself with people who have positive energy, who can push you and direct you toward your goals.

  • Decide what the incentives are for you to reach these goals.  What is the end game?  Will you have greater peace of mind?  Will you be happier? Will you live longer?  Be specific.

  • Ask yourself how committed you are to achieving each goal.  The more committed you are, the more successful you will be.

  • Ask yourself how confident you are about making these changes.  Commitment and confidence are not the same.  You can be committed, but not all that confident- or, the other way around.

  • Consider what specific things you would need to realize each goal.  Where would you start?  How much support do you need?  If you have several goals, which one do you begin with?  Make it easy on yourself-start with the smallest, easiest thing and work your way up to the big changes.

  • Identify any obstacles to meet your objectives.  Do you have physical limitations that might interfere?  Are other people's attitudes holding you back?

  • Begin-Just Do It.  It does not matter what you do; the important thing is that you just do something. Change takes effort, so you have to persist, even when going gets tough.  There is no easy way to accomplish change.  Change also takes time, so be patient.  As the saying goes, "Rome wasn't built in a day."  You Cannot reconstruct your life in a day either.  Focus on the destination, but enjoy the journey.

  • Reward yourself for whatever changes you make no matter how small.  If changes is rewarding, keep at it-if it isn't, quit.  It's just that simple.

Put Your Mind to Work for You


What is it that you want in life?  

A debt-free life, new friends, a loving partner, a knock-out to die for healthy body, plenty of money, a new car, or the dream job- whatever the person desires will manifest. When someone decides to accelerate the process and works out a plan to allow for that manifestation, myriad opportunities begin to present themselves.

 

A person who wants to get to the next level, whatever the goal might be, needs only to change his or her mindset and be aware that the opportunities for manifestation of his or her desire will become more commonplace.  It is as if the universe is working with you, putting wind in the sail of your dream ship to take you anywhere you want to go and give you the experiences, relationships, money, wealth, and things you most desire.

 

Fernando Reis

Fernando Reis, who teaches Brazilian Jiu Jitu here at Xtreme Training Center, has changed his mind set, moving forward full force to manifest his desires and dreams, has this to say, "The personal development program 'Your Wish Is Your Command' dramatically improved the quality of my life. In only a few months after I started listening to the CDs I tripled my income, I  have better relationship with everybody around me, I re-connected with my family, and found myself excited about what is coming to my life in the future. I feel truly empowered."

 

             What is stopping you from reaching the next level of your life?
