Anyone heard of this film? I have a vested interest in this as a friend of mine from high school (Claire Sloma) stars in it. Claire and I used to be in drama together and it's cool to see her having success. The filmmakers were really nice people (I almost got to work on set) and there were some great articles about this movie swimming around the internet for a while. It was shot here in Detroit (using the Red camera) during the summer of 2008 and the trailer was just released a few days ago. You can check it out here if you're interested:

Set against the backdrop of mile roads, neighborhood blocks, abandoned factories and lakes which make up Metro-Detroit, this story follows four young people as they search for love and adventure on the last night of summer.
Maggie, Rob, Claudia and Scott cross paths as they explore the suburban wonderland chasing first kisses, elusive crushes, popularity and parties. They are looking for the iconic teenage experience, but instead they discover the quiet moments that will later become the part of their youth that they look back on with nostalgia.
