Drew Barrymore meets Mid-Michigan fans

August 20, 08 by Angelic

We told you that a movie was being shot in Birch Run Township. It’s a film called “Whip It!” that was using what used to be Kens Diner as a location that had been remade into the “Oink Joint”.Local residents spent the day at the location watching the action and looking for stars. Their wait paid off. Rob Major of Vassar was one of those lucky spectators. He sent NBC25 an email telling us about getting to meet the film’s director Drew Barrymore.

After Drew Barrymore finished shooting her final shot yesterday close to the road a group of 15 to 20 fans gathered across the road and watched as she hugged and thanked many of her crew and danced a little in celebration with some of her crew. She glanced across the street a few times as we celebrated with her. Then she seemed to be walking away when she suddenly turned around and walked across the road alone and met with us signing autographs and graciously apologizing saying she had been working very hard today. She signed my shirt and my son’s as well.

Even though this part is shot in Mid-Michigan, the movie is about a Texas girl who joins a roller derby league. The movie is based on the young adult novel Derby Girl, written by Shauna Cross. The movie is currently scheduled to be released in 2009.

Grand Rapids skaters roll ‘em in Drew Barrymore movie “Whip It!”

August 13, 08 by Angelic

Rachel Bockheim was taken aback when Ellen Page recognized her.

“It should be the other way around,” Bockheim said, laughing.

Best known as skater Jackie Daniels for local roller derby league the Grand Raggidy Roller Girls, Bockheim has landed a gig in front of the camera for Page’s roller-derby film “Whip It!” which is filming in the Detroit area. And Bockheim was surprised when the Oscar-nominated “Juno” actress complimented her on her skating aptitude. Read the rest of this entry »
