Seidman film wows West Michigan

Local screenings of a family Christmas movie starring Florence Henderson, by Tom Seidman, son of Grand Valley founder L. William Seidman, have continued to sell out, prompting Celebration Cinema North to add more showings.

“The Christmas Bunny,” will play at Celebration Cinema North at 1 p.m. Friday, December 10, and continuing at 1 p.m. each day, through Thursday, December 16.

The film was shot entirely on location in Ada, Lowell, Zeeland, Grandville, Alto and Grand Rapids, and made its world premiere at the theater on November 28. Seidman also directed Grand Valley’s School of Communications’ 2010 Summer Film Project, “Horizontal Accidents,” which expects to have a debut in April 2011.

“The Christmas Bunny” has not yet been rated, but is expected to receive a PG, with some story elements that may be disturbing to very young children. Tickets are available online at www.celebrationcinema.com or at Celebration Cinema North, 2121 Celebration Dr. NE, in Grand Rapids. For theater information, call (616) 530-7469.
