    THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE: A FILM BY EMMY AWARD-WINNING FILMMAKER ANDREW GOLDBERG
    WILL SCREEN FOR THE PUBLIC FREE OF CHARGE on
    APRIL 17, 2006 at the EGYPTIAN THEATRE IN HOLLYWOOD

    LOS ANGELES, CA (March 22, 2006) - On Monday, April 17, 2006, residents of
    Los Angeles and the surrounding areas can attend, for free, an exclusive
    screening of the upcoming PBS documentary THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE at the worl=
    d
    famous Egyptian Theater in Hollywood (6712 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood, CA
    90028). The film=B9s director, Andrew Goldberg, will be in attendance.
    The producers of the film are offering this free screening to Los Angeles
    residents, because it was recently announced the Los Angeles PBS Station,
    KCET would not be airing the film.

    =B3We were saddened to hear that KCET, the flagship PBS station in Los
    Angeles, chose not to air the film, but we feel that this documentary, whic=
    h
    so clearly tells the story of the Armenian Genocide, was important to
    present to this community, where more Armenians reside than anywhere else
    outside of Armenia,=B2 said Goldberg. =B3The date is just one week before
    Genocide Remembrance Day on April 24th.=B2

    On April 17, 2006, in cities outside of Los Angeles, audiences across
    America will tune in to PBS to watch the world debut of the one hour film,
    hosted by Julianna Margulies and featuring narrations from such famous
    performers as Natalie Portman, Ed Harris, Laura Linney, Orlando Bloom, Paul
    Rudd and others.
