New Cinema Film Set To Raise Snow Holiday Profile

New Cinema Film Set To Raise Snow Holiday Profile

Published : 11-Jan-2011 11:44

We can expect a deluge of snowsports newbies on the slopes next month, probably most of them booking packages to St Anton, thanks to the launch of new movie 'Chalet Girl' which was filmed in the top Austrian resort.
In cinemas next month (February 2011) its stars include Bill Nighy playing successful businessman Richard Masden and Brooke Shields playing the scheming mother of the main male love interest.
The plot seems vaguely familiar. Innocent young lady becomes lowly chalet girl for rich boss, working along side snooty chalet manager, she falls for son of rich boss (against wishes of his afore-mentioned scheming mum and pre-existing snooty girlfriend) and falls over a lot while learning to board before entering a pro-am boarding contest.
Described as an "ice cool rom-com", it is we're reliably informed by the producers, "...filled with laughter, romance and kick-ass snowboarding ...Chalet Girl is a hilarious and touching story about finding a talent, staying true to yourself and achieving your dreams."
These are certainly values that we here at J2SKI hold dear, so we wish the film well.
More good news is that Bill Bailey is in it.
