The cast and filmmakers of 50
to 1 hit
the road rock-star style on a cross-country tour that
began March 17, 2014 to promote the major motion
picture's theatrical release.
Cast members on tour were Skeet
Ulrich, Christian
Kane, Madelyn Deutch, Todd
Lowe, Hugo
Perez and Jamie McShane. Also
on tour were filmmakers Jim
Wilson and Faith
Conroy, and as a very special treat, the realMine
That Bird made
special appearances along the way.
"We wanted to bring 50
to 1 to
the people of America," Wilson said. The tour mirrored
not only the true story, but also the release of the
film, and crisscrossed its way from town to town from
New Mexico to Kentucky.

SKEET ULRICH

"I'm extremely excited to hit the
road with a film I'm very proud to be a part of. It seems fitting
we'd be selling our wares from a gypsy-like caravan, given the
underdog nature of our story, and I'm hoping this journey answers
three burning questions. One, are audiences tired of the blockbuster
and ready to be uplifted by the values of hard work and integrity?
Two, can we inspire our audiences to stick to their guns and
do what they love at all costs? And three, does Christian snore
louder than Todd?"

CHRISTIAN KANE
|
"I've done tours before. I'm excited!
It's old hat for me in the sense that when you love something
so much, you will put 18 wheels and lives in motion just to bring
it into town and say, 'I hope you like this. I made this for
you.' "
|

MADELYN DEUTCH
|
"Shooting 50 to 1
was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I am
so proud of the film - how it makes you feel, and what it
stands for - and THAT is why I'm so excited to get out on
the road, and share it with as many people as possible!"
|

TODD LOWE
|
"Man, this almost feels like we're
carnies or something, or an old whistle-stop political campaign.
I'm looking forward to rolling into different towns and shaking
hands and kissing babies."
|

HUGO PEREZ
|
"It'll be a fun, fun road trip vacation
for me, part of the dream life I want to live. It's also an honor
and I'm so fortunate to be a part of this adventure."
|

JIM WILSON
|
"I thought, why not meet the audience
this movie is intended for, introduce them to the stars and shake
their hands. It's the audience that matters the most. It's why
we make these stories, to share them with the world."
|

FAITH CONROY
|
"Personally, I've always wanted
to be a rock star and seriously, traveling across the country
for weeks on end with a busload of gorgeous cowboys? Sign me
up!"
|

MINE THAT BIRD
|
"I'll race you guys to
the theater!"
|

"When was the last time Hollywood's leading men hopped on a
bus and toured the country from town to town, introducing
their film to the people of America ? It's unprecedented."
