I want to see the upcoming movie called "The War Boys" because they filmed a portion of the movie in my Dad's trailer court in Albuquerque's North Valley. My dad doesn't like trigger-happy drug dealers, though, so he will *not* be seen in the movie: it's just nice knowing that he's peeking outside through the curtains, from the comfort and safety of his trailer, very, very close by, as the drug smugglers betray each other, or kill each other, or whatever nasty things they do to each other in the movie. According to a post on imdb.com:
The director just taught a class of mine at NYU for a couple of weeks and happened to talk about the current state of the film. It's been submitted for entry to Cannes and so will most likely be taking that route of finding distribution.And what about that other Albuquerque movie, "Game"?:
Game is a near-future action/thriller starring Gerard Butler (Kable) as the champion of an on-line game called "Slayers". Mind-control technology has taken society by storm and "Slayers" allows humans control other humans in mass-scale, multiplayer online game. With his every move tracked by millions, Kable's ultimate challenge becomes regaining his identity and launching an attack on the system that has imprisoned him.Not released yet (apparently it's coming out this Christmas season), but here's a teaser trailer!
Yes, this is downtown Albuquerque, just as I fondly remember it!
