Cast of Spike Lee’s ‘Da Sweet Blood of Jesus’ Weigh in on the Film at ABFF In New York
Elvis Nolasco:
Bringing the ABFF film festival to New York says a lot about where we are going tomorrow.
It’s always an amazing experience working with Spike. Someone I can definitely learn something from every second that I’m on the set. He’s an interesting storyteller and filmmaker so if you watch carefully you’re gonna definitely learn a few things.
About the movie, no fangs, no werewolves, just sweet blood of Jesus. We can’t give it away too much so when the audience is able to see it, they’re able to take it in and enjoy it in its entirety without having to hear other people’s perspective you can come and get your own.
The most beautiful aspect of working in a crowd-funded movie as opposed to a major studio is that it’s like FUBU. For us, by us. It’s beautiful to support each other man. And to be part of history. Like if you contributed, you’re part of something.
