"The Promise: The Making of Darkness on the Edge of Town" is the award-winning documentary that received rapturous critical response around the world, including screenings at the Toronto International Film Festival, The BFI London Film Festival and The International Home Film Festival. The Los Angeles Times gave 'The Promise' five stars, while Variety called it "thrilling... a vivid portrait".
