The Fast and the Curious.


Remember that Shining redux trailer? The one with the Peter Gabriel song? This one’s from the same guy, Manhattan editor Robert Ryang. He’s got a quite a little resume going at this point. After the Shining trailer got so popular the New York Times covered it, the Independent Spirit Awards hired him to make a couple more. One, in which he would take an independent movie (Blue Velvet) and make it look like a mainstream movie (Monster-In-Law, I guess), which you can look at here. And the one above, in which he was to take a mainstream movie and make it look independent.

There’s a fair amount of more interesting info to be found on Ryang, and other trailer recuts by the gaggle of editors he works with. But, since I’m already at risk of simply parroting another blog, I’ll pass on the interested to The Tattered Coat’s well-researched entry.
