This trailer for The 90th Minute intrigues me. I hear it's only a short film --20 minutes or so--
but as WPS is an area that I know precious little about I'm curious to see what it's like from a
player's perspective. And the fact that it includes a player who was with a team that won a
championship and was then dissolved makes it all the more interesting.
Three reasons to see Carlos Bardem's upcoming film, Dias De Gracia:
- It takes place during the 2002, 2006 and 2010 World Cups.
- The soundtrack features Massive Attack and Scarlett Johansson covering "Summertime."
- Eva Longoria is in it and she will probably look fine as all hell.
As mentioned the other day, Seattle-based energy drink slingers Golazo have commissioned a short,
short film centered on MLS fans & supporters entitled Walk Among Us. It's attractive stuff full of
color, noise and (appropriately) energy. If you have 5 minutes to spare before tonight's big match
give it a click; hopefully the nation sees this kind of passion tonight on ESPN2.
This looks like a fun film. I've been in NYC for the past 3 World Cups and if you can't be at the
actual tournament there is no better place to be than New York. Even though the games may be taking
place thousands of miles away, the World Cup vibe still permeates the city due to its multi-culti
milieu.
The last time I co-signed on a documentary about a USMNT player the film never got released. But
then again the film's subject, Claudio Reyna, was stinking it up on the field at a dear salary so
perhaps the lack of enthusiasm around the project had little to do with my sad attempt at
cheer-leading.
Attention brothers, sisters and fellow members of the congregation of the Church of American
Soccer: it's time to pass around the collection plate.
The creators of the independent film Gringos at the Gate need our help to get their movie out of
the edit bay and into theaters/DVD players so it's time to put up (cash) or shut up; watch the clip
above to find out how you can help make this bit of celluloid soccer magic happen.
