Oh here’s a refreshing idea! Talk about movies presented to a specific public but which could interest an important amount of people!
“The Dimestore Video” is in this category; a purely skate 20 minutes video produced by Philippe Lavoie (himself skater) and which triggers a bunch of fantastic emotions to the spectators. This kind of videos are usually and too often presented with only performed calculated tricks without making place for fun, imagnation and emotions that performers have. As opposed to “The Dimestore Video”, where we can see young katers perform a “hollie” over an sleeping hobo. Tere is even interesting content for people who likes to see others hurt themselves… naturally, as in any good skate video! As a proof, during the presentation organised last Thursday, the room was full of people reactign with cries to any critical moment
The video takes place in different nice places such as Barcelone, San Fransisco, Toronto, Calgary, Montreal and few others. Phillipe accordingly creates an instantaneous success around him. He films right on the stop creaing amazing angles or directly on a skateboard in order to take us right into action. It is then a movie simply and principally axed on skateboard but its hedonistic aspects and its hip-hop music reminding us of the lost in the ’95s soul of the performers adds a lot to the video.
As a matter of fact, a beautiful piece of cinematographic amateur art for anybody who loves skaeboarding or anybody who simply wants to be entertained and have a good time admiring amazing skaters who performed at their best!
