OrangeTV: You Tube Previews CdA-Based Film
Looks like the film "Teenage Dirtbag", which was directed by one-time Coeur d'Alene resident Rebecca Crosby and was filmed right here in town several summers ago, is finally about ready to see some kind of release, although I was unable to locate much info on the web. The trailer was posted last week on You Tube, and it looks like my kinda flick: a depressingly noir drama involving some awkward precocious teens and an abusive parent. The tagline goes like this: "A popular high school girl is harassed by a delinquent boy until they are placed in creative writing class together. Through written words, they create a bond, but tragically a bond that cannot withstand her social pressures or his brutal home life." It's based on a true story, something that apparently stuck with Crosby since she attended Coeur d'Alene High in the '80s, and it looks like most of the movie was filmed there -- OrangeTV/Making Flippy Floppy.
