Working on UNCERTAINTY was a turn on.  I get off on unique creative experiences, and the collaborative improvisational process into which Scott and David, the filmmakers, invited Lynn and me was indeed unique.  It also turns out to have resulted in a great film.  Or I’d say so anyway.

And it’s one of those movies, like BRICK or MYSTERIOUS SKIN, that’s truly, as they say, “independent,” as opposed to 500 DAYS OF SUMMER, for example, which certainly had no blockbuster budget, but was produced by a major studio, Fox Searchlight.  UNCERTAINTY’s budget makes 500’s look like GIJOE’s, especially when it comes to marketing.  Which brings me to the shameless pitch ;o)

If you like movies that push the envelope of the art, that aren’t made for the business of it all, but are really just made out of recklessly passionate cinephilia… I do recommend you check this one out.  We can’t really afford to, you know, advertise and things like that, but we count on other cinephiles like us, like you, to head down to the art house instead of the multiplex.

I’m gonna be at the IFC Center, where it’s playing in NYC, for the evening shows all next weekend.  Hope to see you there!

UNCERTAINTY Trailer

We wrote this story, in a way, with Joe and Lynn. They were our partners, improvising all the dialogue through a month of rehearsals in restaurants and subway cars, and on the streets of Chinatown and Woodhaven, Queens. It was a crazy, intimate experience, with actors committed, with us, to doing something none of us had ever done before.

We wanted as much real life as we could get from the streets and the people around us. It was hard work, but unforgettable.
