These actors have moved on to other projects but they all got together to do this!

Dart League
That was my inspiration.  So much drama.  So much comedy. 

Tom and Gwen just broke up. Or did they? 

Gwen has just been dumped from what she thought was a happy relationship.  As she struggles to figure out what Tom is hiding from her, mixed identities, lost babies, and deceptions lead to love and adventure.

The Importance of Doubting Tom is a fun screwball comedy romp inspired by the popular Oscar Wilde play, The Importance of Being Earnest. Award winning filmmaker Vanessa Roman is giving this story a modern twist, setting it in the world of darts where the competitions play out echoing and mirroring the games that lovers play.

Why does it cost so much to make a movie? 

Let's break it down to the most important part.  We put in some pie charts that look like dart boards but let's break it down. They gotta eat!  From actors to behind the scenes crew, feeding a crew and keeping them awake and healthy adds up.  We need coffee to get that last amazing take before the director calls cut!

Equipment.  We want our film to look great and in order to do that, we have to have a camera that is going to capture every moment beautifully.  But where would we be without lights and sound? And makeup. Trust me, we need makeup.

This film is a labor of love but in order to get to set, we have to put gas in our cars!

The Impact

We wanted to make this film in St. Louis to highlight what a great city this is and to keep our local filmmakers employed.  This is a thriving community with stories to tell and beautiful scenery to show off. 

How to help.  Every small contribution is valued and important but if you can't spare it, please help connect us with people who can.  Share our link on your social media page and reach out to your friends to let them know we need support.

At the end of this, we are going to show you a super funny movie with a heart.  We want to make you laugh and maybe cry just for a second before you start laughing again.
