<DIV>'Fake trailers' can be great. One of my stepkids was told to direct (with three friends) a five-minute short film for a school assignment. After going through a bucketload of trailers for 'Versus' they decided to direct a trailer, and ended up getting the highest marks in the class (none of whom thought of doing the same, surprisingly).</DIV>

<DIV>Jamie Blanks (not quite Orson Welles, I know) got the job directing 'Urban Legend' by putting together a fake trailer for 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. A Spanish horror director (can't remember which one) also used a specially-made trailer to raise cash to shoot the movie.</DIV>

<DIV>In the 2007 two full length feature horror movies written by Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez "grindhouse", they both put some peculiar fake movie trailers. Here are the four : </DIV>

I am aware<BR>> of unorthodox trailers such as that for Welles' F for Fake, but that is not<BR>> quite what I have in mind. What I have in mind is a trailer that purports<BR>> to be about an entirely new and upcoming movie, and is presumably sent along<BR>> with a current movie, but which depicts a movie that no one ever intends to<BR>> make.<BR>> Best,<BR>> Bruce<BR>><BR>> ベアード•ブルース<BR>> 慶應義塾大学訪問准教授<BR>> 舞踏、アングラ演劇<BR>> 慶應国際レジデンス<BR>>
