Drew Barrymore, Ellen Page, and Kristen Wiig in "Whip It"

Comingsoon.net has posted a short interview with director of Whip It Drew Barrymore and the film’s stars Ellen Page and Juliette Lewis. Although the article is only a few questions long, they’re interesting because they seem to accurately reveal the tone of the roller derby film. The sport is full of some pretty tough women, and these stars express their admiration for that toughness, along with some other notable characteristics of the “world” of roller derby.

Being that not much is being written about the independent Whip It even though it releases this Friday, this short interview is worth a look if you’re considering seeing the film.

Fun Fact: Whip It is Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut.
