The new film from Warren Miller Entertainment, ’75’, celebrates the historic anniversary with emerging athletes and storytelling that will set the tone for the next 75 years.
This fall marks the 75th anniversary of the Warren Miller film legacy. When his first film debuted in 1949, it ignited a new genre of filmmaking for the fledgling snowsports industry. Today, Warren Miller films have captured the stories of skiers and riders from every edge of the winter world and continue to gather audiences each fall to celebrate the start of the season.
Appropriately titled ’75,’ this year’s film is the second installment in the two-year celebration of this momentous anniversary. Last year, viewers relived the hills, ski trends, icons, and innovators that defined winter sports for over seven decades with Warren Miller’s All Time.
Viewers can expect to discover new, rising talent and storytelling that focuses on the future of the sport.
’75’ is comprised of entirely new footage, including five segments in collaboration with producers whose careers were inspired by Warren’s filmography. Contributing producers include X Games host Selema Masekela, the Finnish-based production group Real SkiFi, plus Sherpas Cinema, Technically Doing It, and Framework. The production mix showcases a new film model that is both inclusive and forward-thinking while setting the tone for the next 75 years of ski and snowboard filmmaking.
The 75th Warren Miller Film Tour will kick off on October 15 with a special World Premiere sneak preview screening at the Boulder Theater, near the company’s headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. This celebration will include a street-festival-style party and screening event on what would have been Warren Miller’s 100th birthday. With a nod to the founding father, the premiere will launch the nearly 100-city North American film tour.
The lineup for ’75’ is stacked with top athletes like snowboarders Shaun White, Zeb Powell, Toby Miller, Danny Davis, and 15-year-old phenom LJ Henriquez, plus skiers Max Hitzig, Lexi duPont, Caite Zeliff, Aaron Blunck, Alex Ferreira, Cassie Sharpe and many more.
