The Face of Freedom - 14 Days (in-progress) documentary screened at the Alamogordo Film Festival

Reviews: Alamogordo New Mexico March 2005 - Everyone was left wanting more of "Fourteen Days in America", and wondering when they would be able to purchase a DVD. The audience was thrilled because, for all practical purposes, they were starring in the documentary. Everyone felt connected, knowing that they and their Alamogordo neighbors had been part of the process.

"Fourteen Days in America" can best be described as "moving". The individual interviews on screen are put together in a way that draws you in to the story of contemporaryAmerica. This impressive collection of people shows many types of folks. Most of them might never have had their voices heard if David Gibbons hadn't asked. The characters deliver home-spun wisdom and wacky random thoughts. The documentary is impressive in the way it draws out the real personality of those interviewed. At the end of the day, David Gibbons will have a superb documentary which will help all of us to better understand our neighbors and ourselves.

Review by Executive Director of the Alamogordo Film Festival, New Mexico 2005

In loving memory - Ben Pritchard

We are so very sad to announce that our beloved friend and colleague Ben Pritchard left us recently. Farewell to a dear and sweet man who touched our lives so deeply. Our heartfelt condolences goes out to his family and friends. His passing is not his end; he lives on in all our hearts and will always be an extraordinary part of this project called 14 Days.

This wonderful project and its beautiful imagery both in stills and film is dedicated to Ben who was intrinsic to its success. We had the honor of spending time with you but it was not nearly enough.

"Your brilliance and passion for life will be missed by us all"

David William Gibbons, Richard Knapp, Dana Hursey - June 2007

Memorial for Ben Pritchard

We recognize the effort and travail that creating worthwhile films requires; we recognize the talent and hard work that characterized Ben Pritchard. Through unsurpassed dedication and effort, Ben earned the respect of everyone with whom he worked. Though he traveled the road fame and fortune for only a short time, the promise of this young, energetic, and talented man was clear to all who knew him. Ben’s contribution to the two 14 Days documentaries is etched in the memories of everyone who worked with him. As a colleague of ours in the Mad Brit film organization, we honor him.

We celebrate his life,
Donn Finn, Rocky Lang, and Sam Smiley
