Anyone know the exact release date of Opel Gt the movie? I can't wait to see it. !!!

Mike Siegel · 05-15-2009

I wish I had four arms and two heads. Would make me ugly but I'd release two films then in Juli.
For months I'm working around the clock on my Special Edition DVD for my Sam Peckinpah (THE WILD BUNCH, THE GETAWAY) project PASSION & POETRY. Just in case any Sam Peckinpah fans are here in this forum

There uploaded stuff on youtube (PASSION POETRY PECKINPAH).

As soon as that 265 minute 2 - Disc DVD is on the market, I'll go back to OPEL GT - THE MOVIE. So I estimate September is the date for me to use as a personal deadline.

In February I filmed Günther Irmscher for the film and he gave me some archival footage from the 70's. Great stuff and the first time I ever saw GT's on the race track! I mean historic stuff, not recent footage.

Any updates on Opel Gt the movie?

Mike Siegel · 09-06-2009

I'm just recovering from a serious burn-out.
My Peckinpah-film was finally released two weeks ago (way
behind schedule). But the final product is just the way
I envisioned it:

Will continue with the GT-Film pretty soon.

The only serious problem: music. I have an excellent temp soundtrack which
I have to remove by 100%. Can't spend 100.000 for music on a no-budget film.
So I have to replace it with music I'm collecting from everywhere.
Any musicians here ?

I can use Rock, Blues, Jazz, Classic, Country... Almost everything.
I'll credit contributors in the opening titles & end credits. And in case the film makes its money back I'll devide remaining grosses between the involved talent..

There are places and sites you can get music that you don't have to pay royalties on and it's all legal. I can't remember the name for that type of music but a quick search should throw something up. All types of music should be available.

Mike Siegel · 09-06-2009

No, this won't do. We need to be on the safe side otherwise
we can't sell the film to TV etc.
We need musicans / bands who contribute and signed contracts...

May I suggest trying Jamendo.com for sound track music. They have over 24,000 albums, (over 200,000 fresh songs) of free downloads. You can find any gender music on this site. I am a semi-pro musician and have uploaded music to this site for the past few years. The music is published under a creative commons license. If the music is to be used commercially then the license fee is very small.
