Meanwhile… in the Blogosphere

One of the most interesting things that has happened to THE TRACEY FRAGMENTS since we shot it over two years ago is that the star of our film Ellen Page (you may have heard of her and this little film she did called really do I need to tell you?) has shot to stratospheric heights of fame. Deservedly so, since she is one of the most talented actresses any of us has ever seen and just an awesome person as well. Director of THE TRACEY FRAGMENTS totally called an Oscar nomination for her during our shoot, but I don’t think any of us thought it would happen so soon.

The result of this is that a LOT more people are paying attention to our film now that it is finally getting a US release (May 9, 2008 in New York City and other cities TBA). The trailer has also hit the big time, at www.apple.com/trailers where it is presented in lovely HD.

Here are some of the recent blog articles that have sprung up since the release of the trailer.

AfterEllen.com takes a pretty extensive look at a lot of the reviews and focuses on the amazing performance of Ellen Page:

A Million Monkeys Typing focuses on the talents of Director Bruce McDonald, and some of his previous work:

Gawker.com speculates that The Tracey Fragments might be “the most annoying movie ever”:

Big Picture with Colin Boyd warns Ellen fans that her performance is not adorable or sarcastic as in Juno

I was wondering when it will be released in theaters in Halifax, NS (Canada).
