FrICTION

June 28th, 2010 | Posted in: movies

For FrICTION, filmmaker Cullen Hoback (Monster Camp, 2007) takes us to a private high school where he writes a script about a real couple and a student who comes between them. Through the process of making the film, hidden truths about the real lives of the actors playing themselves are revealed, and the line between fiction and reality fade. Blending the original “intended” film with rehearsals and documentary elements, Friction breaks the wall that separates fiction from reality, challenging the very real lives of everyone involved. What remains is part documentary, part fiction.

I really want to see this movie and see how everything turns out. Making it even more interesting is the fact that the entire movie was produced with a budget of $100,-!! Amazing isn’t it? One thing is certain: Cullen Hoback has taken unconventional storytelling to another level. In cinemas from September 2010.

Real Hoverboard

When I first saw the Hoverboard in Back To The Future 2, I soooo badly wanted it! Together with the Nike’s Marty McFly was given. And now, after the Nike’s became sort of real, now the hoverboard is real too. Nils Gaudagnin has created a real floating hoverboard. Really cool. Unfortunately it won’t work on the street just yet… Now we’ll just have to wait for someone to turn a DeLorean into a flying time machine.
