Sitting down with Alex Ranarivelo, director of "The Last Race" is always interesting. He is 26 years old, ultra-talented, and extremely passionate about the art of film making and the love he has for racing, and it shows in every part of this film. Alex came up with the story for the film, while in the midst of film school at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. His writing teacher said to "write about what you know". Street racing immediately came to mind since he's a huge motor sports fan and an ex-street racer. Alex wanted to make a film that portrays today's street-racers in a realistic manner. During early pre-production, Alex met Dennis Caco, President of Autocannon, through some friends in the import world. Dennis read the script, and loved it. He offered to help produce and distribute the film.
