Plante Reps Robot to the Fullest
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Mike Plante of the CineVegas Film Festival had some good things to say about Sweaty Robot in his interview with BACKSTAGE.
A few selections will be of particular interest to actors. Happy Birthday, Harris Malden, which screens in the fest’s Jackpot Premieres section, was made by a five-man group that goes by the name of SweatyRobot. “It’s five guys working together, and they’re all credited as the directors, and they wrote it together, and four of them act in it, and one of them actually did the cinematography,” says Plante. “It feels like a full story, and there are really rounded characters; it’s not just like a five-minute skit that’s stretched out. And since they worked on all aspects of the film, it’s low-budget, but it doesn’t feel like it’s trapped or limited; it feels like there’s a lot of work put into it.”
Thanks Mike, that means a lot to us.
