Re posting here

Movie was so good.

Not what I expected (story wise), I expected to cry but yeah not the WHOLE way through!

I cried in the opening sequence, cried when they showed the accident the first time. Sobbed when Sarah Burke was on screen talking about Kevin’s accident, and his friends initial reactions. And so many other times. And of course at Rory’s story when Sarah had her accident.

But it was funny too and light hearted and joyous and all the wanky words you can think of.

Please every one watch it.

And now at least i know I have one person on my side when I get snarky about wearing helmets!

And looking after you brain after an incident!

This is an interesting read from the Director
8 things I learned from making The Crash Reel

And this chart please know it and understand it you may need it for you or a friend

I really want to see it. I know I’ll be tearing through the whole thing. I did in the trailer, especially the bit when his brother with Downs said about not wanting him to die. My younger brother has Downs so it really pulled on my heartstrings

Oh my god K2 - David (the brother you mention above) was the coolest!

Its playing at the Melb Film Festival you should really try to get down and see it.

I don’t think It is actually going on regular release.

What makes you say that?

Well the fact that you can’t find it listed anywhere and in about a week it will be available on itunes and DVD in Australia.

Also the fact that it is only showing in film festivals (even in the US) and that it is apparently on constantly replay on HBO in american.

There does not seem to be a “normal” cinema release.
