The Urban Outlaw Film Release / Magnus Walker's Dream.....

It was gonna' happen, The Urban Outlaw hits the street after numerous film festivals...It's Magnus Walker's documentary film, and it takes us along riding shotgun in a first class seat.

My buddy Magnus set out on this adventure to do a film about Porsche through his eyes.  That he did in a creative, introspective, and arty kinda way. It could be one of the best commercials for Porsche, ever done, but done in a non-corporate world. Magnus along with his wife live in a renovated old warehouse in downtown LA before it became fashionable, and is not more than arms length away from the cars in his Porsche collection, most '64 to '72 long hood 911s. In a word, a hotrodder is the best way to describe his passion towards his cars.

He's been busy since the release of the trailer with interviews with TopGear, Autoweek, and others with about 50,000 views in the first 24 hours. And he's started a blog to document his cars with creative photos. The short film was submitted and shown at numerous film festivals, such as Sundance, Austin, London, Montreal and more. It was produced and directed by, Tamir Moscovici.
