ONE NIGHT is a Netflix Rental - New York, sing it out


Yadacity wants you to meet filmmaker Michael Knowles.

Michael is an award winning filmmaker who acts, writes, directs, edits, produces and to top it off, is also a cinematographer.

His short film “Nick and Stacey,” which premiered at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival is now available on i-tunes.

Michael’s second film is “ROOM 314,”{which he wrote, directed and produced twice as a play before making it into a feature film.

The New York Times called Room 314 “an actors dream.”

Joe Leydon of Variety stated the Michael has a “fine-tuned gift for creating vivid characters with a minimum of dialogue and a sure feel for establishing and sustaining tension, sexual or otherwise, within limited timespans."

The Hollywood Reporter stated that: "The Filmmaker clearly has a gift for incisive characterizations and dialogue."

Now on to “ONE NIGHT” (which he wrote) was selected by 10 Film Festivals, two of which earned Knowles Best Director nods. Variety had this to say about One Night: "…pic gleans decent perfs from a cast mixing up-and-comers and a couple notable vets."

Michael’s next feature, “East Fifth Bliss,: is set to start filming in April of 2010 and will star Michael C. Hall. East Fifth Bliss was adapted from the novel of the same name by it’s author, Douglas Light and Knowles.
