Pearse Moore, Producer of the film for Raw Nerve Productions said: "We at the Nerve Centre are delighted that Dance Lexie Dance has done so well. To be behind this year's only Irish nomination is a tremendous achievement for everybody associated with the film. This is great news for the people of Derry and for the Northern Irish film industry as a whole."

Dave Duggan, Writer, on Lexie's Oscar nomination:

Well, it all begins with a strong screenplay, a small budget, a good director, great actors, a brilliant producer and production company and the sense that writing a screenplay in a bedroom in Derry (N. Ireland) was hardly the first step on the yellow brick road to Hollywood. Then, the film started to win awards all over the place: Cork, Galway and most notably Aspen Colorado and Pearse Moore, producer, submitted it to the Academy Awards. The rest, as they say, is history.
