Crossing the Bridge Trailer! New Film From Fatih Akin!

crossing.jpgSweeeeeet ... the teaser trailer for Fatih Akin's Crossing the Bridge is now available online in MPG format here and it looks amazing. With his previous film - the searing Head On - Akin took a fictional, and pretty grim, look at the cultural collision of east and west using his own Turkish roots as a basic. With Crossing the Bridge Akin is working in similar territory, this time from a documentary approach using the music of Istanbul as his reference. The teaser's mighty slick - stylish and loaded with humor - and I hereby consider myself teased. You can check the full website here.

Wow... Thank you, Todd. Here I am, probably looking forward to this film more than any other summer release, and you've found the site and trailer. Wonderful.

Pretty amazing. I haven't been able to see HEAD ON yet - hopefully soon. Akin's previous film, IN JULY, is pretty slight in light of this and HEAD ON but is still a lot of fun and worth checking out.
