Movies "Buhl, Idaho" ... a suspenseful "Napoleon Dynamite"? Let's hope so.
Posted by Amy Atkins on Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 5:11 PM
"It's a beautiful morning in the small town of Buhl, Idaho and the landscape is a blur of reds and yellows. A handsome, older teenage boy comes home, dazed and lacking sleep after a long night, obviously worried about something ... Across town, a mother realizes her teenage daughter didn't come the night before and nobody seems to know where she is ... the teenage boy deals with the burden bearing down on him ... two young brothers diligently work to bury the young girl and with her, the secret of what happened to her."
So goes a synopsis of Buhl, Idaho, a new independent feature film starring Scott Glenn (The Bourne Ultimatum) and Alison Elliot (The Spitfire Grill), with Heather Rae (Trudell, Frozen River) at the production helm. Filming begins in the eponymous town of Buhl in mid-October.
And what does a feature film need to be successful? Actors. Where does one find actors for a film set in Idaho? For a change, in Idaho.
Auditions for Buhl, Idaho are on Monday, Sept. 14 in both Boise and Twin Falls for children ages 4 to 12, teens ages 13 to 19 and adults ages 25 to 80 (so, pretty much anybody). Interested? Send a photo and contact info to buhlcasting@gmail.com.
Break a leg!

I grew up in Buhl...how fun to think of this movie being filmed there. I hope offers a positive portrayal. We had the fun of a movie being filmed this spring and summer in the small town in Arizona where I am currently living. I didn't participate in it but it was fun to have the activity going on and it gave a significant boost to our economy.
I live in Buhl and heard about the filming over a week ago on the local TV news. There was an article in the newspaper about it too. I immediately sent in my picture and information. Now I have an audition for the part of the grandma on the 25th in Twin. I'm so excited! Besides being a movie extra there are even speaking roles.
whoo hoo!! im from Buhl myself and have ALL of my (large, lol) family still there and around (castleford, twin, boise)... this is too cool... were having a movie filmed there!!!! when the crap does this ever happen??!! never.. especially to Buhl. I hope this all works out and we all get to see the finished movie.. hopefully something worthy of watching the whole way through... but because I am a die-hard 'Buhlite' im even gonna buy/watch/ defend this movie and 'promote' it here in Vegas!! lmao...good luck to all who are involved and behind it!!
