Quinn is Over 'The Rainbow'

Had this in a scifiwire newsletter yesterday, sorry just getting it posted today. Real life has been terrible lately.

'Eureka' co-star Ed Quinn told SCI FI Wire that he's completed work on the independent film The Rainbow Tribe, which he described as a family film with SF overtones.

"The Rainbow Tribe is a great little summer-camp movie," Quinn said in an interview while promoting the upcoming third season of SCI FI Channel's Eureka. "It's got Grayson Russell from Talladega Nights and David James Elliott. It's a sweet little movie. It's doing the festivals right now, and it's getting some really, really good response. I basically went to summer camp last summer and shot it."

Elliott stars as a terminally ill man who hopes to recapture some of his youth by returning to camp as a counselor. Over several weeks, he forges a bond with a number of the kids and enjoys a few humorous adventures.

"I play sort of the Yoda of the piece," Quinn said. "And there is kind of a fantasy element to it. It's the aurora borealis, and it deals with that camp mythology, what we thought was real when we were kids. Was it real? That feeling of invincibility we had, was it just youth or was there something to it, some gravity to that? It's a sweet little movie. I know they're really looking to get it a theatrical release. And there's even talk of doing a sequel before this one gets released, because the kids are growing up fast." --Ian Spelling
