Event
we make movies presents HOW I GOT LOST
Award-winning festival film HOW I GOT LOST will screen in Los Angeles Friday, October 7-13 at the Downtown Independent theatre for a Spirit Award qualifying run. Written and directed by Joe Leonard, the film follows two New Yorkers on a road trip after the September 11th attacks, and features strong performances from Aaron Stanford (Nikita, X-Men), Jacob Fishel, and Rosemarie DeWitt (Mad Men, United States of Tara), with music by Kaki King, Sufjan Stevens, and Clarence Carter. After a successful festival run, the film has drawn renewed attention after the recent anniversary of the attacks. Presented by upstart film collective We Make Movies (www.wemakemovies.org) -- their first feature film, but not their last.
"Writer-director Joe Leonard aspires to make a generational statement about the young Gothamites whose dreams and illusions were dashed in the wake of 9/11. As nicely enacted by Fishel and Stanford, the relationship between the two characters has a core integrity... The visually polished pic achieves the desired contrast between the hustle-and-bustle of New York and the characters' countryside idyll." -Variety
"How I Got Lost begins with hip New York 20-somethings, sexy and stubbly in their rumpled suits, awash in ennui. They are drunken and sad and look as much like hell as possible while remaining fuckably urbane. They are burnt out. You worry for a moment that you're about to see a movie about the bullshit worries of bullshit young people of means. But How I Got Lost is better than that. This is a film about the way life tends to rip people out of their poses, and the hip young people of How I Got Lost spend the whole movie getting ripped out of theirs." -Palm Beach Times
"This movie had us at Rosemarie DeWitt." -Austinist
