“All he’s doing is taking the measurements for the red carpet.” Tribeca Films has revealed an official trailer for an indie film titled The Premiere, a meta comedy about a director trying to turn his favorite movie into a stage musical. From the two filmmakers Christopher Bouckoms & Sam Pezzullo, this originally debuted last year and will be out to watch on VOD this month. The Premiere is a mockumentary about a narcissistic theater producer, Sam (Pezzullo himself), creating a documentary of his journey to stage a musical version of his favorite movie, Scream (yep, the 1996 slasher horror classic). Along the way, he clashes with quirky characters played by real-life Hamptons locals, to awkward & outrageous results. Drawing inspiration from cringe comedy classics and crafted largely through improvisation, The Premiere is a keen satire about the Hamptons with a biting love letter to the community at its core. Starring Sam Pezzullo, Kristen Curcie, Mohna Hoppe, Ruby Jackson, and Alan Ceppos. The film is as much about the Hamptons community as it is about putting on a musical as it is about the Scream movie. Lots going on in this! Looks fun enough. // Continue Reading ›
