Chuck Palahniuk's Story, 'ROMANCE,' To Have Its World Film Premiere At The Raindance Film Festival

Chuck Palahniuk's Story, 'ROMANCE,' To Have Its World Film Premiere At The Raindance Film Festival

If you saw Chuck on tour recently, then you heard him read from one of his best short stories to date... 'Romance.'  'Romance' is a easily one of my favorite stories Chuck has ever written.  I won't spoil the surprise of the story, but let's just say it's a true romantic comedy, in only the most twisted and fucked up way Chuck could tell it.

Last year, Andy Mingo, a filmmaker out of the Pacific Northwest who also happens to be Lidia Yuknavitch's husband, wrote and directed an adaptation of this wonderful story, and it's now set to have its world premiere in London at the 2012 Raindance Film Festival on October 2nd. If you plan on attending, not only will you see the film, but you'll get to see Chuck do a Q&A / reading and possibly qualify to be one of a dozen people who attend an intimate dinner with Chuck at a prestigious location in Leicester Square.
