So, the rapture/reunion/reunification/rejuvenilifacation is happening in just a few hours. This morning, the core group of filmmakers plus bonus creative consultants had a production meeting at the Satellite Diner, next door to Irv’s where the main event is going to go down. We figured out the answers to some questions and figured some questions have no answers. We read the newspaper story Jennifer LaRue wrote for the Spokesman Review, which I can’t link to because it’s not online. We ate breakfast. We were given nicknames.
I dunno, what do you see?
Then we went next door and met the owner and manager of Irv’s. We scoped out the place and made plans: “The confessional booth goes here, Erik Phillips pole dances over there…”
It’s for real folks. Not just the reunion, but this movie inspired by the heartwarming true story of a group of misunderstood misfits, struggling to beat the odds. We could be talking about Spokane Punk in the 80′s, or we could be talking about The Bad News Bears. The main difference is the lack of Walter Matthau in our story.
Enough talk. Time to head downtown and get stuff set up.
