Ramblings of a Constipated Mind

The producer, writer/co-director/star, associate producer and co-editor of this movie were at NC State yesterday for a Q&A, before it premiered at the Carolina Theater later in the evening. I wrote a preview article about it. I spoke with them for a while - they're a really cool group of people. A lot of them went to the North Carolina School of the Arts (I wonder if they know David Short?) or NC State. It's refreshing to see a situation in which people really went out and made a movie themselves straight out of college (or in college, in the case of some). They started out with a few thousand dollars, and managed to eventually find enough investors that the final film has a budget of a few hundred thousand dollars. Less than half a million.

Anyways, I'm off to the Carolina Theater in around half an hour to go see the full film, and maybe hang out with the group some more. Hopefully the movie will be good - at the very least, I know it will be unique. For more info on the film, go here.
