Curiosidades

Our Song is a 2000 American coming of age drama film written and directed by Jim McKay. It follows three high school-aged girls and best friends over one pivotal summer in Brooklyn. Our Song stars Kerry Washington, Melissa Martinez, and Anna Simpson in their film debuts, respectively.

Production

Director Jim McKay said the idea for the film "started out as an idea for a film about friendship. It was about kids outside of the mainstream of American society." McKay said he was dissuaded from making another female-driven film like his previous effort Girls Town. McKay said, "There were people who told me: ‘Don’t make another movie about young women. It’s a bad business move.

The Jackie Robinson Steppers were not in the original script, but McKay wrote them in after he saw them perform and realized "what being in a band meant to the kids in that neighborhood." The film's lead actresses had a month of rehearsals prior to the start of filming, in addition to two months of practicing with the marching band. Filming took place over twenty days in July 1999.
