My friend Talia Lugacy directed this and I'm really pleased with it. I know that because I barely squirmed once while watching myself, a real feat!Her recent film debut, "Descent" starring my old roomie, Rosario Dawson, is quite powerful with some amazing performances. The NY Times gave it a very impressive review comparing Rosario's performance to DeNiro in "Taxi Driver." You would think a distributor would run with that and release the thing nationally with quotes from that review pasted on every newspaper and web site. But they never really got what the film was all about and only ended up premiering it at Tribeca Film Festival and releasing it in NY and LA. It's now out on DVD and I highly recommend checking it out. It's a very different look at date rape than what American audiences are used to. However, if you are a bit squeamish, beware of the ending. I think it is a very courageous and auspicious directorial and writing debut for Talia and Rosario's best acting performance yet. I had three tunes in the film which was good fun for me. Talia did a great job of portraying this pretty bizarre concept I presented her with. The song came to me in a dream that took place in an English pub. The world was coming to an end and we were all blazingly drunk singing the chorus together. When I awoke, I immediately sat down and recorded it. The original demo had a much more sing along, sloppy vibe to it, and as you will hear, it came out a lot cleaner in the studio.Robert Lehrer plays the elder me and it is quite spooky. We are doppelgangers! My mother saw him at the video release and jokingly asked me to introduce her to my grandfather!I'm really happy with my layman friends' acting in it. Lots of eerie vibes. Hope ya dig.
