Western Carolinian June 16, 1994 Features Ue's Ue Cro*1 H"% *• Ian Spelling College Press Service "The Crow" is finally about to fly. At long last, the film many felt would be Brandon Lee's breakthrough project soared into theaters May 11. Whatever it merits, "The Crow" will be regarded as the film Lee died making. "The Crow," eerily, tells the story of musician Eric Draven (Lee), who lives with his fiancee, Shelly (Sofia Shinas), in a dark urban city. On Devil's Night, the couple is viciously killed by Top Dollar (Michael Wincott), the local crime lord, and his pals. A year later, Eric rises from the grave, invincible. He's guided by a black crow which links the worlds of the living and the dead. Eric's soul can't rest with Shelly's until revenge is exacted, so he delivers violent justice, slaughtering Top Dollars' cronies one by one, until a showdown with Top Dollar himself. Along the way, Eric forms an alliance with the cop (Ernie Hudson) who was on the scene the night of his murder, and he bonds with another girl, Sarah (Rochelle Davis), with whom he and Shelly were close. At the time of his death last March, Lee had just several days of work left on "The Crow," which was directed by Alex Proyas. It had been a brutal production, with much of it filmed outdoors in the frigid North Carolina cold. Then there were assorted mishaps and, finally, Lae's death. "It was a totally devastating, sad feeling, and it sometimes comes back," says producer Ed Presman of Lee's passing, which was caused by a prop gun. "It had been a particularly tight unit before the accident. Afterwards, it was a committed group that found a significance in their work that went beyond the norm." o 15 cent Wings $4.50 Pitchers __ Karoke $1.00 Draft Live Band $1.50 Corona Ladies Night $1.50 Bad, $1 Draft $1,50 Her light Technically, there was no problem finishing the film. Only one flashback necessitating Lee hadn't been shot, while several chase sequences were completed using using a double. Proyas created new scenes and toiled in the editing room to build the relationship between Eric and Sarah and relate the story through Sarah's eyes. "The Crow" began life as a comic book by James O'Barr. Co-producer Jeff most, who attended New York University film school and was active in music video, had been looking to find a comic book artist for another project when he met O'Barr, who was then creating his third "Crow" comic. Most optioned the film rights, developed a story treatment with writer John Shirley and brought Pressman the treatment. "We clicked," recalls Most. Pressman and Most considered "A" names for the lead, then, after seeing "Showdown" in Little Tokyo and "Rapid Fire," cast Lee. The character had tremendous athleticism, so we needed and actor who had that," says Most. "Ed suggested Brandon, he had everything." ^ "It supercedes the genre," says Pressman. "It's not just about action, there s an emotional resonance, partly because of what happened and partly because of what's there." "It's everything I wished for, and it's what I promised O'Barr when I asked him to let us make a visual adaptation of his comic books," adds Most. "The film stands on its own artistic merits. It's cutting edge. After all that's happened, I'm delighted we have it one the screen " $MIM__i£Ii£ SU1VIMER HOURS MON - FRI 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. PENS CARDS BOOKS PENCILS MAGAZINES SOUVENIRS ART SUPPLIES MUCH, MUCH MORE'
