Matt Jeffs and Jim Stafford (above.) Jim was the first guest on the show.

Matt Jeffs and Al Aldrich (above) spoke about Grazia the movie. Grazia is an independent film shot in HD and is a true suspenseful love story which takes place in north Florida. As with most good books or scripts, there is more fact than fiction in the story. St. Augustine, Florida is the primary setting; although, filming also took place in north Florida in Jacksonville, Palm Coast, and Putnam County, which included 40 venues/locations. It took 22 intensive days often running 14 to 18 hours nonstop to complete the shoot. Including extras in the movie there was a total of 115 participants.

Since the movie was primarily shot in St. Augustine, Florida, Grazia will premiere at Epic Theatres of St. Augustine located at 112 Theatre Drive.

Many of the cast members will be in attendance. There will be two show times for the film–one at 2:00 PM and one at 7:00 PM on

January 21, 2010. Advanced tickets may be purchased by calling (904) 797-5757.
