Title: The Long Way Down
Post by: NUDO on July 08, 2008, 08:05:49 PM
The Long Way Down is playing at Brier Creek on July 31st. If you have not seen The Long Way Round it is worth a look.


Long Way Down
7/31/2008


Fathom and Wasserman Media Group are proud to present the Elixir Films and Big Earth production of Long Way Down â€" the ultimate motorcycle adventure - on the big screen. This unique event will be shown in select local movie theatres for one night only, on Thursday, July 31st at 7:30pm!  This is your only chance to see a Fathom exclusive cut of Long Way Down â€" Ewan McGregor (Star Wars, Moulin Rouge!, Trainspotting) and Charley Boorman’s (Actor and Motorcycle Fanatic) 15,000 mile motorcycle journey from Scotland to South Africa on the big screen. Join McGregor and Boorman as they face many challenges from the unknown and unforgiving terrain that test their endurance, driving skills and push their friendship to the limit.

“There is something liberating about just having what you need, on your bike,” said McGregor. “A tent, a roll mat, a little bit of food, a bit of petrol in your tank and a vague idea of where you’re going and that’s all you need. There is something beautiful about that.”

Directed and produced by David Alexanian and Russ Malkin, Long Way Down is a follow-up to the Long Way Round trip of 2004, which documented the motorcycle journey from London to New York via Russia, Kazakstan, Mongolia and North America.

My Beemer buddy gave me The Long Way Round a couple years ago... Great series...  gets a little political at times, but is very interesting none the less!

Jobu and I are in.

I don't know if Jobu's riding or not, but I won't be since I haven't replaced my burnt up S4 yet.
