Commenting on the movie, FLIFF President and CEO\u00a0Lisa Grigorian stated:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival is truly honored to host the world premiere of the Guy Harvey documentary. As the fishing capital of the world, Fort Lauderdale is the perfect home for a film that celebrates marine life, conservation, and the legacy of one of the most iconic ocean artists of our time.\u201d <\/p>\n
While Nanton commented on his new film:<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve grown up with Guy Harvey \u2014 the brand \u2014 being a part of everyday life. Literally every\u00a0day I see someone wearing one of his signature shirts. <\/p>\n
\u201cWhat I became enamored with was Dr. Guy Harvey the artist and his love for the ocean and incredible dedication to conservation through his research. Guy Harvey bridges worlds \u2014 he\u2019s as much a scientist as he is an artist, and his work has changed how millions of people see the ocean. This film celebrates not just his achievements, but the movement he\u2019s inspired to preserve our planet\u2019s most vital resource.\u201d <\/p>\n
Harvey himself also added:<\/p>\n
\u201cI applaud Nick Nanton and his team for artfully capturing and highlighting four decades of exploration, research, fishing, diving, education and conservation into such a powerful film about what has become, and still is, an unforgettable journey.\u201d <\/p>\n
