Eric Tretbar on his Film, "Snow"
April 30, 1998 - A failed guitarist and a former punk girl find love in the new local film, "Snow." Dialogue and character drive the film more than action, but there is still plenty to look at. Shot in black and white, the Twin Cities landscape in winter looks stark and beautiful. Minneapolis filmmaker Eric Tretbar based his story on the people he knew in the Twin Cities music scene and what they did when they got a little too old to rock-and-roll. The movie makes its Twin Cities premiere tonight as part of the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Film Festival.
