The movie version of Neil Young's CD 'Greendale' was premiered at the Toronto Film Festival on Friday. Shot mainly by Young himself on a Super 8 digital camera the film is - according to Warners exec Bill Bentley - "an incredibly moving tale of several generations of family in a small American town. In a lot of ways, it's a microcosm of life in America and what can happen to even the best of people in modern times. It also shows the power of hope in the younger generation to try and save the planet and themselves".
Young hopes to release the movie properly in 2004, though a distributor is still being sought.
