So some kids got together and made a film...

...not just a little home movie, mind you. Learning by doing, these kids made a shot-for-shot remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark. They started when they were 12, and finished the thing when they were 18. It was their teens. And it shaped their lives.

Read about it here.

John,

Future Gus Van Sant's in the making? Now, what would we have remade at twelve?

"Now, what would we have remade at twelve?"

I was a little younger than 12, but I liked Our Man Flint a lot. A few years later I would have remade Enter the Dragon. Ah, they don't make 'em like those anymore. [img]/forums/images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

I would like to see this film. Do you know if they will release it on video? Maybe they'll show it at Cannes. I wonder if Ebert and Roper are aware of it. The clip was intriguing.
