"Primer" Interview, Website and Trailer.

The biggest surprise of the Film Fest this year for me was "Primer". It was the tale of two friends and their discovery that the project they had been working on for years suddenly had formed into a time machine (no smoke, lights or lazers - this thing was just wires and a box). With a story that had as many puzzled viewers with it's content and mind bending ideas as all those who realized they paid money to see Wimbledon, it requires a second viewing for sure and a lenghty discussion with everyone around you (bring a scientist - it'll help). I came across a great interview on Greencine with the director, writer, star, editor, cinematographer and pusher Shane Carruth (who Ain't It Cool are calling the next Kubrick) and a link to the website which has the listings for where and when the movie will be playing the next few months (only American dates for now). If you live in or near a city it's showing you must go and see it - and then we can discuss. Read the interview here and check out the website with a click on this word. And if you haven't yet - see the trailer here.
