MotoGP Movie Faster Celebrates National Theatrical Release With Premier Thursday In Atlanta

From a press release:

SLAMDANCE DISTRIBUTION TAKES INDI MOTO GP FILM "FASTER" INTO NATIONAL THEATRICAL RELEASE

Los Angeles, CA – For the first time, motorcycle enthusiasts and action thrill seekers across the country will have a chance to see Mark Neale's independent film FASTER, the action-packed documentary about grand-prix motorcycle racing, in major theater chains. Slamdance Distribution, an entity of Slamdance Media Group, makes this national theatrical release of FASTER possible.

FASTER takes you on-and off track with the world's top motorcycle road racers, in an exciting full-throttle-and-sidewise blast through the world of MotoGP racing. The full-length documentary film is a headlong rush into the ultra-dangerous, ultra-competitive world of championship motorcycle racing. Narrated by Ewan McGregor, FASTER documents the lives of four of the sports' top riders in 2001 -- Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi, Gary McCoy, and John Hopkins -- as they travel the globe competing against each other.

From September through October 2004, FASTER (in 35 mm) will open in over 70 screens in major metropolitan markets for excusive two-week runs. Exhibition partners including CineMark, Landmark Theaters, AMC and Pacific Theaters are thrilled about the opportunity to offer this unique heart-pounding, adrenaline-rush film to their audiences. A theatrical premiere event in Atlanta on September 2, 2004 will kick off FASTER's national theatrical release.

Sept 10th....hmmmm. Duh!  ;D I have the DVD, but I really did want to see it on the big screen. Might have to dust off the R6 for the occasion.  ;) :D

I don't know why the Detroit area wasn't considered.
 :-[

[H-man]

Who the hell put together that list! :o >:(

Mankto, MN; Gahanna, OH; Grandville, MI but nowhere in the metro Detroit area!!   No Motown, motor city??

Oh the shame, oh the horror, oh the humanity of it all ::)  But I am disappointed.

I too have the dvd, but it'd be cool to watch it on a really big screen with others.

  H-man

[motomadness]

I will probably try to make the Chicago screening.
