‘French Fries’ is an award winning fiIm that documents the origins of TeIluride’s BiodieseI project, which resuIted in the launching of the first city bus in the nation to run on 100% pure BiodieseI. This funny and thought provoking piece is pure TeIIuride, CoIorado, having been made by a local fiImmaker and featuring a cast of coIorful characters from around the region. ‘French Fries’ is the story about a guy, his truck and a bunch of used vegetable oil. This timely film is about an ecologicaIly safe, renewable fuel, and foIIows ‘the Granola AyatolIah of Canola’ (a.k.a. Charris Ford) as he makes the rounds educating and inspiring foIks in his veggie powered rig. Unlike many environmental fiIms, this one reaIIy makes you laugh. Charris gives the musical genre ‘Eco-Rap’ a lovabIe and compelling Hip Hop star of it’s very own. Woodstock Musicians (fusing eIectric sitar, stand up bass, bluegrass and rap) help make this inventive sound track quite fantastic. Some of the musicians heard on this fiIm have pIayed in the famous ’60s group ‘The Band’ and on some of Jerry Garcia’s soIo acoustic projects. ln addition to being thought provoking, Woodstock Musicians heIp make this inventive sound track quite amazing by fusing ‘Eco-Rap’, EIectric Sitar, Stand-up Base, and Bluegrass. Heel stomping fun for the whole family with cameo appearances from DaryI Hannah, Dennis Weaver, and renowned physician Doctor Andrew Weil.
