TRUCKSTOP Media Thanksgiving Newsletter - November 24, 2005
Just a couple of quick news items to digest over the U.S. holiday weekend:
1. DUTCH HARBOR RE-RELEASED THEATRICALLY IN FRANCE
Braden King and Laura Moya's lyric Aleutian Island portrait, Dutch Harbor: Where the Sea Breaks its Back, opened theatrically in Paris on November 23 and will expand to other cities throughout France and the Benelux region in the coming weeks. The release is being handled by E.D. Distribution (Guy Maddin, the Brothers Quay, Harmony Korine). A summary of French press (four stars from French Premiere!), cinemas and screening times, the French trailer, a photo gallery and a few 'secrets de tournage' can be found at Allocine. Watch for the DVD release in the spring on Plexifilm. The film's soundtrack is available from Atavistic.

2. DIRTY THREE / CHAN MARSHALL VIDEO: "GREAT WAVES" COMPLETED
Braden King recently directed the video for the single "Great Waves" from the new Dirty Three album Cinder (Touch and Go / Bella Union). The song is a gorgeous collaboration between Dirty Three and Chan Marshall (Cat Power). DP duties were handled by Sam Levy. The video also features additional footage shot by Matt Boyd and Jem Cohen. Special thanks to Art Director Tim Grimes, Producer Jenny Reiff and Washington Square Films. See the main page of the TRUCKSTOP Media website for a link to the video.
