Tugging on long underwear and feverishly re-applying Cherry flavored Chapstick; its day three of the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and the elements have inspired me to try my wool-gloved hand at writing a screenplay of the more … er sensual sort.
Not only has the sea of tickling fur-trimmed boots contributed to my new found need to put pen to paper about T and A, but the randy undertones of the films I’ve attended have become my muse.
The Argentinean short, THE BLINDNESS OF THE WOODS (preceded Amy Pholer’s SPRING BREAKDOWN), illustrates the volcanic levels of libido awakened within in a human-sized puppet made of yarn. This tale told in the bleak, cold and lonely woods of the 1800’s soon turns into a kaleidoscope of hot and steamy crochet on crochet action when a cross-stitched brawny woodsman delivers chopped… er, wood to our blind maiden. Surely puts a new spin on Grandmother’s handmade quilt.
Then I zipped off to the public screening of the serendipitously titled, HUMPDAY (see review below) starring indie film emblem Mark Duplass (BAGHEAD) and Joshua Leonard (BLAIR WITCH PROJECT) in your typical hetero-sexuals-make-their-own homo-sexual -“video art piece” (porn), all in the name of pushing the boundaries of the male ego!
It was the arrival of Mara, Florida Film Festival’s newly appointed Director of Development, that set my creative wheels in motion. A business and social powerhouse as well as Sundance virgin (see above entry), Mara left the Sunshine State determined to hobnob with industry A-listers and charm ‘em back to FFF. Alas, she walked into our condo happy to announce that her first brush with the film industry’s finest was chatting with Ron Jeremy who stood behind her (watch out!) at the airport. If that wasn’t a sign from the heavens beckoning me to write my pants off (or about taking pants off) then I don’t know what is.
