Re: Kevin Smith Film Fest - Jason Lee
>what else did Jason Lee appear in... Since we're talking about Jason Lee... He was in another Spike Jonez feature which was untitled. Airwalk (J. Lee's shoe sponsor) produced a video to promote Airwalk which was again filmed by Spike. This one came out in '95. It was only distributed to Airwalk team riders, Airwalk Retail Stores, and special industry people. It was about 13 minutes long and featured J. Lee hitting tennis balls over a net, alone. J. Lee wore a smart tennis outfit of a white shirt and much to short shorts (especially for those days). J. Lee's big acting break reportedly came through his then girlfriend. If you've seen Dazed and Confused, he dated the red-headed girl who drove around with the two not-so-cool guys looking for the party out in the woods. She reportedly introduced him to the right people. The relationship seems to be fact, but the acting break might be a rumour. And yes, Jason Lee was my idol for about 4 years (until it became apparent that he had quit skating in order to act). And yes, those in the know call him simply, "J. Lee". -H.

RE: Kevin Smith Film Fest - Jason Lee
>While we're off-topic...Jason Lee (Mallrats and Chasing Amy) a severely >under-rated actor ... what else has he been in? Jason Lee had the final segment in The Blind Video. For those who don't know, The Blind Video was released in '91 and changed professional skateboarding and videography. It was directed by Spike Jones (the same who directed Being John Malkovitch). The video was so influential that when Jason Lee appeared skateboarding without socks on, large groups of teenagers (myself included) decided to abondon socks for the next few months. I'd bring the video over for the film fest, but, alas, it resides in the United States with 90% of my other belongings (my mind included). -Hamlet D'Arcy _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
