Verfilmung des Romans von James Welch " Winter in the Blood”


Fort Belknap, Indianer Reservation im Nordosten von Montana war die Heimat vom Autor James Welch.
Die Dreharbeiten für seinen Roman " Winter in the Blood” werden ab Juli 2011 im o.g. Reservat beginnen.

Andrew Smith:
"Several of today's leading Native actors have committed to act in the film, including Chaske Spencer (Assiniboine and Sioux, and famous for his appearances in the Twilight films) in the lead role and Julia Jones (Choctaw and Chickasaw, also a Twilight veteran) and Gary Farmer (Cayuga, and recent recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Native American Film + Video Festival).
Die Hauptfigur wird Virgil heißen (obwohl er ungenannt im Roman ist). "

Alex Smith:
"We have a real link to him through our own difficulties growing up in a very isolated place in the rural west, suffering hardships of loss—including loss of our family members, when we were children—and dealing with alcoholism around us. Those are the very first things that hit me when I first read the novel when I was 13. That's key for us to identify with this character's journey. Trying to become a good man with all that adversity is the heart of that story. It's also a book about a guy who loses his brother, who was his best friend, and as twins Andrew and I are best friends and brothers, and the idea of losing him is pretty terrifying. And the book captures that, which is something we can sink our teeth into as directors. "

ICTMN Sonny Skyhawk :

Der Film" Winter in the Blood", ist ein Kaleidoskop von Visionen und erlebten Eindrücken aus meiner eigenen Geschichte, aufwachsen als junger Indianer in diesem Umfeld ", schrieb er in einem Beitrag für ICTMN.
"Es ist eine sehr schwierige Geschichte das zu erzählen, aber es gelang durch die hervorragenden Leistungen der Ureinwohner Akteure."
