Lurie puts up his dukes

"City of Calgary has starring role alongside Samuel L. Jackson in boxing film"
Director Rod Lurie has relocated the setting of the movie Resurrecting the Champ from LA to Denver just so he could film in Calgary. This was on the advice of Ang Lee (Brokeback Mountain). Lurie says he will be back filming in Calgary if he can because
“Normally speaking, you shoot at least 12 hours a day and this crew is working with such efficiency they’re getting me out at nine, 10 hours.

“I think it’s really part of … the Canadian work ethic. ‘Get the job and get the job done without complaint,’ which I love."

Rod we'd love to have you back!
