If Alex Proyas would make more movies, he’d probably be one of my favorite directors. He’s the bloke responsible for “The Crow” and “Dark City,” two lovely lovelies.
Anyway, he has a new film and it’s set in the world of music called “Garage Days”:
Garage Days is a coming-of-age comedy about a young Sydney band trying to get a foothold in the competitive world of rock n’ roll. After the band’s first gig is a colossal failure, the lead singer takes it upon himself to go out and pursue the most successful Rock Manager in the country. Meanwhile the other members of the band continue to deal with the kind of every day life issues that can ultimately tear a band apart. It may be the dawn of a new millennium but it’s STILL a long way to the top if you want to rock n’ roll.
I saw the preview before “28 Days Later” and it looks really good. It’s out 7/18 in NYC and LA and who knows for the rest of the world.
