BRAVE NEW WILD

The music in Brave New Wild is an incredibly important part of the film -- reflecting and reinventing the story along with the cast of characters. It's half of what makes the film so damn cool! And it is all original. Musician and composer Mark Bertuldo created the ori...

Fred Padula’s El Capitan is one of those rare cult classics whose lore has survived despite the fact that it was nearly impossible to get a damn copy. For awhile, you were hard pressed even to get the movie on VHS.  (The American Alpine Club Library had it on VHS, but...

We're revisiting some old blog posts from when we started on this dang project many ages ago and many websites ago -- this oldie was originally posted on October 30th, 2008 and comes on the heels of the first interview with the father of modern bouldering John Gill.

Joe Kelsey, the man in the mugshot above, could be considered something of a poet laureate to climbers. Having been a climber, writer, and Vulgarian who climbed all across the country between the 1960s and today, his writing on the subject captures both the antiestab...

After a tri-county Southern California run with great turnouts, we couldn't be more excited to take Brave New Wild to the great Lone Star state of Texas! We've packed our sleeping bags and cowboy boots, and are heading to the screening in Austin this Monday, May 2nd a...

On Tuesday, April 19th we'll be screening Brave New Wild at a really cool theater -- the historic Ken Cinema in San Diego! The screening is being presented by Tuomas Brock aka Durian Grey Promotions. (That's not a typo -- Tuomas is a Finnish spelling. And Tuomas is, y...
