This is great that stars showed up to the premiere. However so many Armenian groups are showing the movie. The people should actually go to the theaters on the first weekend and take non Armenians with them to shoe box office strength. Instead they are going to libraries and Hakka and seeing it for free. I am going to the theaters and taking people with me.
i agree with the prior comment,we should as Armenians pay like the rest ,i am taking non Armenians and paying,we need to see this movie for us not to get an evening of entertainment for free,what next popcorn?
I have a feeling this movie is going to create shockwaves, and the sharks in Hollywood are going to smell the money, and we all know what that means, the next movie, bigger and better, is already on the table
why is it not being shown in Israel, are we competing with something.
why? isn’t it obvious? it is so SAD that of all countries Israel still does not recognise “THE GENOCIDE” – you are absolutely correct Gerard “competing” YES! Shame on Israel for avoiding the TRUTH.
if you are a co-engineer of a crime, you too will cover and avoid the subject matter as if it doesn’t exist, after all, who amongst us will voluntarily expose ourselves for a heinous crime we committed or helped to realize it…connect the dots smart people, and follow the money trail…remember money is ruling the planet, so if you are looking for the culprits, follow the money highway all the way to the those in charge of fraudulently printing it and extending fake, paper credits to their subordinate global murderers to achieve their sick and twisted religious prophecies, those who provide the gun are equally guilty as those who pull the trigger
I am very proud of being an Armenian American. Once I read about the Promise I couldn’t stop tears pouring from my eyes. Finally an important film that shows to the world what happened, and hope that this will be a lesson to all peoples to see the atrocities that took place 100 years ago, by the Turks. That was the 1st genocide of the 19th century. I am eternally grateful to Kirk Kirkorian and all the other people that made this film possible. I will be taking some American friends with me to the theater. By the way, my grandparents, my aunts and my uncles were all killed during the Adana Massacre of 1915. Thank you again for the film. I am looking forward to seeing it on the 21st of April in Miami.
Were any of your relatives massacred at Adana in 1895 or 1909?
On April 25 let us all go to the movies.Encourage all your friends and neighbors to attend and watch this historic film.
It is worth it because it educates people on the realities of Genocide and probably for the first time the proceeds of a Hollywood movie goes to charities and not private pockets.
Yes I am looking forward to the film and taking Canadian people with me. It is time the World new and recognized the history and it was because of this that the Germans slaughtered the Jews as the Turks were very friendly with the Germans at that time and if the Turks could do it and get away with it so could the Germans. Now the Turks are at it again to the Kurds this time. Erdogan is the new Hitler.
“The Promise” is great and important so please turnout!! HUGE THANKS to them! AND… Please check out our documentary based on a true and incredible story of bravery in the time of the Armenian Genocide! http://www.CrowsOfTheDesert.com Based on the memoirs of Levon Yotnakhparian. Documentary produced, written and directed by Emmy Award winning filmmaker Marta Houske
I think “promise 2 ” and “promise 3”. And so on, must be created and shown in all theaters worldwide. Our rich history and worldwide accomplishment must be shown and keep our demands from Turkey and others , continue … and alive and persistent until justice prevails.
Hi my name is Caroline A. I am proud Armenian Australian from Sydney Australia.🇦🇲🇦🇺.

Aremians we Unite 🇦🇲🇦🇺All across the Globe world!
I am a daughter of a survivor of the 1915 Armenian Genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Turks. Even though I was born on the safe shores of the United States of America and graduated form the University of Michigan School of Music in 1958, my demons were from another time and place. My mother at the age of seven , had to “shut down” her feelings to survive a d starvation death march to the Syrian desert in July of 1915. I inherited my mother’s emotional scars. I wrote a book about my mother and me called, “Orphan In The Sands.” It is about the evolution from the depths of black despair to the liberation of the human spirit. Author, Virginia Haroutunian
So very sorry to hear about your mother’s trauma, Virginia, and yes, trauma has a way of transferring its woes to future generations. Kudos to you for putting your and your mother’s experiences in the written word for all the world to read. I am a grandchild of Armenian genocide survivors, and due to the aftermath of the genocide (my grandparents settled in an economically and politically unstable country after the genocide), I was born in South America, raised in the Middle East, and now live in North America. May you find healing in your heart of hearts and soar on wings like eagles. Isaiah 40:31.
I look forward to reading your book.
There is something wrong with that picture above. Despite cultural differences I respect the opinions of the one on the right because she is intelligent, talented and worldly with a life-long career. When she speaks people pay attention to her for her wisdom and depth. She sounds very genuine.
The other two on the left don’t belong in that picture!
I saw the wonderful film, ‘The Promise’, this evening – and was so hugely moved … Yes, this undeniable and devastating ‘fact of history’ should thus be so appropriately ‘aired’ to ensure the world’s due enlightenment in respect of what actually happened, ‘despite’, and regardless of, any attempted intervening cover-up by the Turkish perpetrators (in a similar spirit of denial to that of their then WW1 ‘German allies’ and, subsequently, to that of their Nazi emulators) … and may we all duly and ultimately ‘learn from such dire lessons of history’, especially as so commendably conveyed with the apt ‘ethos’ applied, here in this important regard, by Terry George and Survival Pictures … Col hacavod!
