Michelle Ang In South Of Nowhere

I’ve uploaded a video clip of Michelle, The Tribe’s Tai-San, in the American show South Of Nowhere. View it below…

YouTube Preview Image

The clips are from the double bill of episodes one and two of the third season. The episodes are called “The Valley of the Shadows” and “Can’t Buy Me Love”. They premiered on channel “The N!” on 10th August 2007.

In South Of Nowhere, Michelle plays a news reporter/journalist named Lily, who is making a documentary on a school shooting, which happened in the finale in the previous season. Season 3 of South Of Nowhere looks great!

Prebble With A Cause

… Is finally getting a UK cinema release. It’s called “Mee-Shee: The Water Giant”. It is out in the UK from 17 August 2007.

Here’s a review from Total Film:

Having made the film Loch Ness 10 years ago, Geordie director John Henderson has to look further afield for this sort-of-sequel about a boy (Daniel Magder) who stumbles upon a mythical beastie in a Canadian lake. Brought to life by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, this seal-like critter is the undisputed star of this wholesome homily to valuing family and respecting nature. Sadly, he’s not on screen enough to excuse a witless treasure-hunt plot involving a missing, er, drill bit. With New Zealand filling in none too convincingly for Ontario and performances so stiff they make the animatronic Mee-Shee look like Brando, this is pretty wishee-washee.

The review doesn’t sound too good, but the film is aimed at kids… It was filmed after Jacinta (full name Jacinta Wawatai-Woodhouse) left The Tribe, which was ages ago… The link to the films imdb page is here. An article from 2002 regarding the film, with Jacinta Wawatai is here.
