SHOOTING APRIL
(suspense, 87 minutes) |
Shooting April is a raw commentary on the emerging video culture...and all that comes with it. The film follows three young men who record their sexual conquests on video. Harmless, they think: except that one of them is dangerously driven by the presence of the camera.
So what happens when one of the girls says "no"?
The interplay between the guys and the girls they try to seduce is at once compelling and disturbing. Actor Matt Prater (Truman) has created one of the most unforgettable characters in recent memory: engaging, magnetic, and, in the final moments of the film, utterly terrifying. Complemented by a talented supporting cast that includes Rachel Sieferth, Eric Fagundes and Lindsay Bellock, Prater uses charm and bravado to lure the audience into Truman's world...just in time to watch it implode.
Shooting April premiered in Los Angeles on August 30th, 2010 and was released on DVD in the United States in February 2011.

OVERNIGHT
(documentary, 82 minutes) |
Overnight is the story of Troy Duffy, a
scrappy transplant from Boston who writes a script while working at a bar in Los
Angeles. Troy's script strikes a chord with Hollywood studio
execs, who think they may have found the next Quentin Tarantino. The film chronicles Duffy's humble beginnings, his meteoric ascent, his unprecedented
$1 million deal with Miramax powerbroker Harvey Weinstein and, most captivating of all, his tempestuous transition from "Hollywood's new hard-on" to yesterday’s news. It is then, when Duffy's fifteen minutes are up, that this story becomes most compelling.
Overnight received a wealth of popular and critical praise during its worldwide theatrical release. Ebert and Roeper gave >Overnight "two thumbs up" (Ebert also affectionately dubbed the film "Project Red Light") and The New York Times calls the film "a fable of false hope, hubris and Tinseltown."
