Interview for Flyover Film Festival

Posted on: May 12th, 2011 by wmapother 4 Comments


It’s that time of year again:  Louisville Flyover Film Festival is set for June 10-12.  In anticipation of it, I did an interview about the festival and Another Earth, which is playing at the festival, on Louisville.com.  The link is here.

Chatting with Wayne Perkey

Posted on: March 19th, 2011 by wmapother 5 Comments

Louisville radio personality Wayne Perkey has launched a series of video interviews with Louisvillians (and those who used to be..).

I’m one of the interviewees, and he and I spoke in the new auditorium of my high school, St. Xavier.  The interview is here, and my segment starts at about 14:45.

Sundance Report – First 28 Hrs

Posted on: January 23rd, 2011 by wmapother 8 Comments

Bottom line:  Busy, tiring, fun.  Stop.  Stayed out too late last night.  Curse my Slated partners this morning.  Stop.  Sidewalks very busy, esp. with snow and some heavy snowage today.  Serious about not parking (see sign at right).  Stop.
Interviews and photo shoots apparently not disasters.  We’ll see.  Stop.  Another Earth generating lots of interest for its intriguing premise.  Stop.  Pianist playing on sidewalk for passersby and bear (bear right).  Stop.  Accidental, first-time meeting with fellow actor from Louisville Jess Weixler (Teeth).  Stop.  Such is the fun of Sundance.

Interview with ‘AE’ director

Posted on: January 11th, 2011 by wmapother 3 Comments

In anticipation of the appearance of ‘Another Earth’ in competition at next week’s Sundance film festival, IndieWire has posted an interview here with herr director himself, Mike Cahill (he, to the right, of the long hair).

By the way, I have never, ever seen his expression as calm as in this picture.  He’s typically bouncing about, excited to try some new idea.  I smell Photoshop..

And Away We Go..

Posted on: May 24th, 2010 by wmapother 3 Comments

So the finale just started a minute ago on the east coast.  Zap2it quotes some cast members here about their expectations for the final.  Here’s what I had to say (note that I have no — zero, none — recollection of saying this…unless it was after that wine at last week’s ‘Lost’ charity event at UCLA…):

 “At this point, especially after [‘Across the Seas’], I have no idea. They’ve allowed themselves — they’ve kind of broken all the rules. They could leave Jack on the island, they could send Jack up in a rocket, they could burn Jack up, they could throw Jack in a hole. I have no idea.”
