New York, New York, March 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Maltese film production, \u201cBlood On The Crown\u201d (formerly \u201cJust Noise,\u201d) starring Harvey Keitel (\u201cReservoir Dogs,\u201d \u201cPulp Fiction\u201d) \u00a0and Malcolm McDowell (\u201cA Clockwork Orange,\u201d \u201cMozart In The Jungle\u201d)\u00a0 is now streaming on Amazon Prime, Itunes, Hoopla, InDemand, AT&T, DirecTV and Google Play.\u00a0 The true story of resilience and honor that has been covered up for nearly 100 years, heavily supported by the Arts Council of Malta, was distributed by Los Angeles-based Electronic Entertainment.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Based on actual events, \u201cBlood On The Crown\u201d presents the concealed account of how Maltese citizens fought for their independence against England in 1919.\u00a0 Immediately following the end of World War I, in a plea for their country\u2019s independence, Maltese people from all different walks of life, united to lead an uprising against the British.\u00a0 The Army was sent to quell the riots. Blood flowed when unarmed protestors were brutally killed by the British army. Due to its cover up by the British government in the years following, the revolution is not documented and not widely known.\u00a0 The large number of casualties was an embarrassment to the British army. Over 115 Maltese citizens, mostly teenagers, were blamed for the violence and sentenced to life in jail. \u201cBlood On The Crown\u201d is Malta\u2019s long-awaited triumph to share with the world how a small Mediterranean island took on the British Empire.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBlood On The Crown\u201d is produced and written by Jean-Pierre Magro (\u201cBulgarian Rhapsody\u201d), produced by Pedja Miletic, Aaron Briffa and directed by Davide Ferrario (\u201cAfter Midnight,\u201d \u201cWe All Fall Down\u201d). \u00a0 Mario A. Azzopardi, Roland Joffe, Konstantin Ishkhanov, Albert Marshall, Shayne Putzlocher serve as Executive Producers. Music is composed by Alexey Shor.<\/p>\n

Producer Aaron Briffa said, “We are immensely proud to tell how a small island nation rose to defy the most powerful empire in the world. This David versus Goliath story has been mostly buried until now.”<\/p>\n

When screenwriter Jean Pierre Magro was asked where the Malta source material came from he noted \u201cthe British Colonial office did try to cover their tracks and eliminate any photographic evidence, I believe only 3 or 4 pictures survived. However, there were two reports that served as source material and various books written by Maltese historians over the years.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Commenting further, producer Pedja Miletic noted that he was “extremely pleased that this project was embraced by so many great actors who were invaluable in helping the film become a reality.\u201d\u00a0 He added that the director, Davide Ferrario, framed the narrative with such beauty. Miletic further made note that \u201cthe music of Alexei Shor was sublime in rendering the perfect mood.\u201d<\/p>\n
