Bliss' Barbie Skates
from the movie Whip It
(Fox Searchlight, 2009)
<BACK |
These are Bliss' (Ellen Page) Barbie skates that
she can be seen wearing during her tryout to get on one of the local
Roller Derby teams in the movie Whip It. The 'Barbie' portion of the
skates appears to be production made with stickers applied to a pair
of skates with pink wheels. Little pen-scribbles where then drawn all
over the stickers, which can be matched onscreen to the pair of skates
Bliss wears during the tryouts. The inside of the skates are also both
marked 'Ellen'.
Here's a couple of production photos taken during shooting that show
Ellen Page using these skates: |
