Whew!

View from above: Telluride from Allred’s

That’s the word that comes to mind after a couple of days spent skiing on the slopes in Telluride, CO.  A more picturesque town could not be found outside of Bavaria or the Tyrol (both of which we’ve been to but never had the pleasure of sampling the slopes while on skiis). The whole affair felt like a cross between “Where Eagles Dare” & “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service“, two rollicking good adventure flicks. However the comparison only goes so far: there was nobody (thankfully! ) shooting at us! Hey – we all can’t be Producer/Director Stephen Rollins in Afghanistan! Stephen – we want you on the team, not taking one for the team! :<D (Steve just had a table read of his new American Identity script, and we would have been there if not for a pr...

Soldiers of the GroBdeutschland hitch a ride on an Assault Gun

We’re all about helping out fellow filmmakers here, especially of the historical sort. There’s a great group of guys putting together what looks to be a very interesting series, called The Vanquished, about an elite unit (the Großdeutschland or “Greater Germany” Division which fought exclusively on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. Begun as “Wacht Regiment Berlin” then was later given the designation “Großdeutschland” and was the closest thing to a “Guards” unit (in the British meaning of the term) that existed in the German Army.

Getting IT in the Can!!!

Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction One Sheet

No, it’s not what you might think, it’s the “Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction” teaser shoot is tomorrow!!! Thanks to the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino, CA  for their graciousness in allowing us to utilize their facilities. The venerable David Hansen-Sturm is lensing it, with  Colonel F. Lee Reynolds USAR  onboard doing (what they call) Host Narrative.  His experiences from his multiple tours of Iraq will prove invaluable. Gordon Hearne, who is president of the Southern California Chapter of the Battle of the Bulge Veterans will appear in it also, but we’ll be shooting him in a different locale.  Been going back and forth with Mo Fitzgibbon (of Walker-Fitzgibbon.com) re: wardrobe...
