DETROIT FILM

One week from today, a new movie is having its Michigan debut and it was shot right here in Detroit. An Intrusion surrounds a family and a vicious stalker who may have connections to a violent secret.

Enter: No Sudden Move, a feature film set in Detroit in the 1950s that has brought a star-studded cast to Metro Detroit for filming this fall. Beginning in September, stars like Jon Hamm, Don Cheadle and Benicio del Toro began production in Downtown Detroit and surrounding neighborhoods. “We all stayed in a hotel in Downtown Detroit...and, by the way, Detroit: If you get the chance, go visit. “But also strange making a movie where everybody has to be in masks until three seconds before they start rolling the cameras. The movie is slated to release on HBO Max, but no official release date has been set at this time.

As a student, shooting a short film during a pandemic is a hard task to take on, but Wayne State Film student Miles Reuben was up for the challenge. Reuben recently released NILE: A Visual Embodiment of a Sonic Experience, which takes a look into Black fatherhood from a sons perspective. The original intent of the film was supposed to be a visual aid to the song and showcase my skills as a director to show diversity, he states. The pandemic not only changed the intent of the film but it also changed the look of it and made it challenging to create. The short film has since been selected by Retrospective of Jupiter, an award winning short film website, and a daily pick by the internationally acclaimed film website, Film Shortage.
