babhruvahana , like arjuna at the beginning of the kurukshetra war , faces a moral dilemma . can he risk harming his parents ? while chitarangada alerts arjuna to shoot an arrow at their son and take advantage of babhruvahana’s momentary lapse due to a sense of devotion towards them ( as arjuna did with karna ) , uluci , the naga princess and yet another abandoned wife of arjuna’s , reminds babhruvahana of the teaching of the kurukshetra battle that in the battlefield there is no space for feelings even towards parents . what babhruvahana must do is to establish his mother’s good name and thereby his own character . this film captures this conflict spectacularly . the eerie parallels with the moral dilemmas of the great mahabharata battle aside , here all the familial relationships ( in particular , strong mothers and dutiful sons ) become exaggerated and demand our attention .

it’s a real shame there is no proper dvd with english subtitles for non - kannada speakers , nor has the hindi dubbed version ever seen the light of day on digital format .
but , one more thing , mr . proprietor of pal video who has taken the copyrights and selling the dvds of this movie is not worrying about this thing . more over he doesn’t even response to the customers who calls and speaks about this . he has abused me also when i called him and informed about this . he is very careless about such a popular kannada movie . but , a sad thing is he is a kannadiga . shame on mr . proprietor of pal video .

many , many people are recommending indian films of all languages on a quora post i answered . someone asked if anyone…
in his five - decade career he did all kind of roles . be it mythological role or james bond character or sociopolitical role he gave life to characters of all kind . thereby becoming a matchless actor of his times in india .
virtually every one of dr rajkumar’s films would easily rank as a classic . still i tried my level best to list dr raj’s top - 10 films . this is how my list would read .
the movie was later remade in tamil as “avananthan manidan” starring shivaji ganeshan and also in hindi as “shandaar” starring sanjeev kumar . kasturi nivasa , which was re - released in a colour avatar in 2014 , could become one of the biggest hits of the year in sandalwood .
rajkumar as kumar as forest range officer , kalpana as lakshmi , vishnuvardhan as anand , m . p . shankar as johnny
dr rajkumar as gora , leelavathi as gora’s wife , rajashankar as st . gnanadeva ,
rajkumar , b . sarojadevi , kanchana , jayamala , vajramuni , ramakrishna , thoogudeepa srinivas .
jeevana chaitra created a sort of hysteria , when it was released and the movie tickets became a prize commodity . there were no release by rajkumar in previous years . people were so craving for wholesome entertainment that satya harishchandra , a black - and - white movie of rajkumar , was re - released and ran to packed houses .
it is very difficult to choose the best among his total movies . no other language people might have still enjoying the black & white movies as in kannada . that is only because of dr rajkumar .

american milkshake is the more ironic , darker flip side of a john huges movie without the happy ending .
milkshake
sucks all the flavor out of a tasty premise . . .
“american milkshake” is rated r ( under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian ) for teenage sex , crazy talk and the earliest glimmers of internet pornography .
fresh off the sundance scene , american milkshake is a coming - of - age comedy set in takoma park in the 1990s . the movie , which was filmed on location in maryland , follows a white teen who dreams of joining the high school basketball team and fitting in with the black students from the maple avenue projects . ( trailer for american milkshake )
american title : ironic considering it ' s a canadian film . it does , however , take place in seattle . word of god however tells us that
american
stands for the fact that the main character is living a slightly morbid version of the american dream .
american milkshake
merrily bumps along as if it were the first movie to find humor in a white kid ' s idolizing desire to
be black ,
whatever that may mean to him .
phase 4 films has acquired the dark comedy milkshake , which premiered as part of the sundance film festival’s next program .

escalante said more poisoned pills , one batch disguised in a bottle of bayer aspirins , were delivered through the mafia to an opposition group that almost succeeded in march 1963 when castro went for a milkshake .
added andalman , “as first - time sundance filmmakers who were inspired at a young age by clerks , among other kevin smith movies , we feel there couldn ' t be a better pairing for milkshake .
white teenager jolie jolson is trying to get on the high school basketball team , because jolie thinks it will bring him one step closer to becoming the one thing that he is not : african - american .
we may not have to wait much longer to find out how all four seasons of american horror story are connected now that a script containing crucial information about the upcoming major plot twist has been stolen and peddled to major media outlets .
jolie’s friendship with a loyal nerd , haroon ( eshan bay ) , is better observed and more ably portrayed , but then “american milkshake” is stronger on the quickly forgettable prejudices and passions of adolescence than on race and culture . the burlesque take on high school has some fine , ridiculous moments and lets the movie get away with more than a serious drama might . still , it would take more than name - dropping al jolson ( jolie’s distant relative ) to take the story to another level .
american milkshake
fancies that it ' s saying something profound about jolie clumsily coveting his teammates ' thug lives . he ' s even the great - great - grandson of the blackface performer al jolson — how ' s that for allegory ? but the script is short on details and insight , and when asked to comment on this condition — or the script ' s sketch of a culture on the cusp of the internet revolution — the film , like its dirtbag protagonist , just shrugs .
not even bothering with the accent : for a film called

written and directed by david andalman and mariko munro , “american milkshake” merrily bumps along as if it were the first movie to find humor in a white kid’s idolizing desire to “be black , ” whatever that may mean to him . set in the 1990s — as insisted upon by references to o . j . simpson , tupac , netscape , marion barry , and so on — this half - baked comedy stars a likable tyler ross as jolie , a high schooler obsessed with the racial clichés he has bought into .
vilche went on to spend the next month enmeshed in the making of “american milkshake , ” a small - budget teen comedy about race , class and basketball in 1990s takoma park . created by a 1997 graduate of montgomery blair high school who is now based in los angeles , the project grew into a kind of townwide enterprise in the summer of 2012 . the film was shot in area schools , actors bunked with local families , and internet mailing list callouts provided the extras even as producers scoured neighborhood driveways for period cars .
danny burstein ( born june 16 , 1964 ) is an american actor of stage and screen . as a grammy award nominee and five - time tony award nominee , he won a drama desk award and outer critics circle award for playing buddy plummer in the 2011 broadway revival of

shows
being the key word here , though , as she ' s reluctant to show her true self after everything that happened . the only one seeing a glimpse of the
real
mary is lance , the big thug , during the
milkshake
scene .
like napoleon dynamite in a bad way or the lie in a good way ; juno in a bad way or ghost world in a good way . often frustratingly vague , because it ' s not steady in tone , but with a few promising touches of real romantic confusion , real high school stupids , real uncertain identities . i don ' t know really what to make of american milkshake - - naturally , no one seems to know what to make of it , that tipsy , nostalgic , kevin smith - produced dramatic comedy , slicing somebody ' s life , a little , maybe , i don ' t know - - but it ' s really trying .
as a result , i’m at a loss as to what goal american milkshake hopes to achieve . does it show the universally misguided fantasies of youth without structure ? jolie’s father is a pushover while henrietta’s is a hippie clueless to the fact she’s pregnant . is it a portrait of culture hybridization being coveted for the wrong reasons ? jolie wants to be black because in his mind their race is gangsta . he doesn’t try to get to know his teammates as people ; he wants them to be the caricature racially profiled on the streets every day . if the film has good points concerning identity courtesy of haroon refusing to bow to social pressures and an epilogue - lite sequence uncovering everyone’s true selves beneath surface appearances , its path to such clarity is an arduous one .
jolie is an avid hip - hop fan who romanticizes the tough backgrounds of rappers like tupac shakur , dreams of being a rich basketball star , in order to support his african american girlfriend , henrietta , who is pregnant with another man ' s baby . he makes the team due to a large donation from his well - off father , and believes that he is one step closer to becoming the one thing that he is not : black .
meanwhile , he ' s secretly dating henrietta ( shareeka epps , given little more to do here than scold ) , an african american classmate whose adoptive hippie - dippie parents don ' t realize she ' s pregnant . it ' s another boy ' s baby , but that ' s ok with jolie because he ' s into the fact that
she ' s kinda thugged out .
publicly , he ' s dating christine ( georgia ford ) , a hot cheerleader who will give him the time of day now that he ' s on the varsity squad .
american mary is a 2012 horror film staring katharine isabelle , and directed by the soska sisters . it focuses on a young surgery student , mary mason , with financial troubles , resorting to offering services as a masseuse at a strip club . but at her interview at the strip club , mary is asked to performed surgery on an injured man , the reward being a large sum of cash . soon , mary begins to receive customers looking for extreme body modification , and her mind begins to unravel after betrayal from her medical school professor . the trauma forces her to quit and as the movie goes on she finds herself involved in the underground world of bod - mod , pushing the limits more and more .
starring tyler ross , shareeka epps , georgia ford and eshan bay , the dark comedy marks the directorial debut for david andalman and mariko munro .
the film was written and produced by andalman and munro and executive produced by vinay singh and jason sosnoff .
set in the mid - 1990s , the story follows the tragic sex life of jolie jolson ( ross ) , a wannabe thug and great - great - grandson of legendary vaudevillian al jolson in suburban washington , d . c . , as he strives to become something he can never be : black .
phase 4 will release the film in theaters in the summer and on vod via the company’s kevin smith movie club across all cable , telco and digital platforms .
sundance alum kevin smith said ,
as a guy who shopped at oak tree for most of the ' 90s , the yearnin ' - to - be - urban main character brought so vividly to life by tyler ross really hit home with me . shareeka epps dazzles as the long - suffering sorta - girlfriend , quietly commanding the screen like she did in half nelson . packed with laughs and the benefit of hindsight , this realistic high school indie reminded me of the best entries in that genre - - a sort of welcome to the dollhouse for fly guys .
cinetic media ' s linzee troubh repped the filmmakers . katharyn howe negotiated on behalf of phase 4 .

filmmakers mariko munro and david andalman team to write and direct this dark coming of age comedy set in the 1990s , and exploring the subjects of adolescent racial and sexual identity through the eyes of al jolson ' s great - great grandson jolie , who takes the first step to realizing his dream of being like the cool black teens in the maple avenue projects by joining his high school basketball team . ~ jason buchanan , rovi
the script is short on details and insight , and when asked to comment on this condition - or the script ' s sketch of a culture on the cusp of the internet revolution - the film , like its dirtbag protagonist , just shrugs .
the fact that jolie isn ' t very likable would be less of a problem if this film were actually funny , but his selfish disregard for those around him only ends up making us feel bad for the people who care about him .
teenagers are jerks ( it ' s a scientific fact ) but if you have one as your protagonist , they need a redeeming quality or two .
it ' s a heightened reality based in truth that ultimately seems to glorify the actions i want to believe it ' s actually trying to vilify .

as narrated by his credulous internal monologue in ceaseless voice - over , jolie is revved up about making the varsity basketball team and putting distance between himself and the likes of freshman losers ( or “bamas , ” as he puts it ) . he has been sleeping with a pregnant black classmate ( a bored - looking shareeka epps ) , whom he tutors at the request of her white adoptive parents . but soon he’s two - timing with a white cheerleader .
opens on friday in new york , los angeles and washington . directed by david andalman and mariko munro 1 hour 22 minutes

this is the aspect that truly rubbed me the wrong way because had the film been told third person omniscient , jolie’s actions might have held meaning . as it is now , the lack of discipline , punishment , and fallout only elicits a wry smile from our lead that ends up making him a highly unlikeable character . he eventually feeds his bud haroon to the wolves when the nerd’s inclusion doesn’t fit self - interest , begins a relationship with a bulimic cheerleader named christine ( georgia ford ) in the thought he can be with her at school and henrietta in private , and honestly believes everything happening is some joke his cultivated “hard edge” allows him to ignore . he’s a racist , misogynistic , poser trying to aspire towards the glorifications of tupac shakur and an exonerated o . j . simpson .
i tried finding information on the internet to get a better idea of where the film was coming from but the only thing i dug up was a facebook page devoted to its 90s aesthetic . with time warp photos of the cast and scrapbooked memories of events from the era ruling the page’s wall , it seems as though kevin smith’s movie club and partner phase 4 films are as concerned with exteriors as jolie . there’s simply too much darkness underlining these characters’ actions to gloss over everything as “kids being kids” in a hip retro look . maybe i don’t “get it” or want it to be more than what’s onscreen—i don’t know . i’d probably forgive the rest if it was laugh - out - loud funny , but the bone - dry humor forces me to dig deeper .
there’s another marker for why i should have been a child of the 80s—i’ve already become a crotchety old man who can’t find humor in a racist teen who honestly has no idea he’s racist while stereotyping everyone around him and loving them for exactly those abhorrent qualities . the performances possess an overwrought severity despite being within a comedy that kills all tonal consistency and ensures viewers will be more uncomfortable at what they’re seeing than entertained . heavy issues like abortion , sexual abuse , gang fights , and more are glossed over and treated like children’s games everyone has played before and probably will again . so if andalman and munro’s mission was to expose youth culture’s immaturity and disgusting ability to make light of extreme tragedy , they might have done too good a job .
there is an inherent meanness to this display that even shakes haroon’s likeable sidekick into embracing chaos . and while the performances are well - conceived with bay , ross , and nuri hazzard ’s arius finding authentic layers to depict , you can’t help wanting to smack them all for being carefree brats biting off way more than they can chew . even epps—who plays henrietta as a sanctimonious educator failing miserably to open jolie’s eyes to the truth of their world—partakes in the kind of childish behavior and misguided rebellion that makes her less and less sympathetic as the film progresses . nobody learns a thing . it’s a heightened reality based in truth that ultimately seems to glorify the actions i want to believe it’s actually trying to vilify . i guess i’m just a bama , though , because i’m still lost .

teenagers are jerks ( it’s a scientific fact ) but if you have one as your protagonist , they need a redeeming quality or two . jolie jolson ( tyler ross ) has none : we’re treated to this kid’s would - be sympathetic voiceovers as he slimes his way on to the basketball team , jerks around not one but two pregnant girlfriends , and whines about how much he wishes he were poor and black instead of rich and white . in case you wondered whether or not this was set in the ’90s , characters constantly discuss o . j . simpson and how the internet is gonna change everything . ross shows promise as an actor ; wait to see him until he’s cast in a better movie than this .

but the capsule stuck to the freezer where it was hidden in the cafeteria of the havana libre ( ex hilton ) hotel and ripped open when the would - be assassin waiter went to get the poison .
“that moment was the closest the cia got to assassinating fidel , ” retired state security general fabian escalante told reuters in an interview this week .
castro , who seized power in a 1959 revolution that turned cuba into a communist state 90 miles away from the united states , has survived hundreds of attempts on his life by his enemies , from car ambushes to grenade attacks in baseball stadiums , escalante said .
some of the most imaginative cloak - and - dagger plots were the brainchild of the central intelligence agency , he said .
they included poisoned cigars , an exploding shell meant to be planted in his favorite underwater fishing location and a scuba diving wet suit tainted with toxins .
among early attempts devised by the cia to discredit castro was a plan to place chemical powders on his boots that would cause his beard to fall out when he was in new york to speak at the united nations in 1960 .
when that failed , the cia planned to slip him a box of cigars tainted with lsd so that he would burst into fits of laughter during a television interview , said escalante , author of a book that documents 167 plots against castro .
but it was the cia’s plans to poison castro with botulinum toxins in the early 1960s that came closest to succeeding .
the agency acknowledged last week for the first time that the plot to assassinate castro was personally approved by the kennedy administration’s cia director allen dulles .
the cia declassified nearly 700 pages of secret records detailing some of its illegal acts during 25 years of overseas assassination attempts and domestic spying .
the agency’s so - called “family jewels” describe the initial efforts to get rid of castro by using a go - between to convince two top mobsters , salvatore giancana and santos trafficant , the head of the mafia’s cuban casino operations , to assassinate castro . giancana suggested poisoning him .
six potent pills were provided in 1961 to juan orta , identified as a cuban official who had been receiving kickback payments from gambling interests , who still had access to castro and was in a financial bind . but orta got cold feet .
much of the information declassified by the cia had been released in congressional investigations in the past .
escalante , who detailed the poison pill plot in his book “the secret war” published in 2005 , said the agency was trying to “purify” itself but continues its skulduggery today .
while there is no evidence that the cia has plotted to kill castro since the ford administration banned assassination plots against foreign leaders in 1976 , escalante sees the hand of the cia in more recent attempts by anti - castro militants trained by the agency for the failed bay of pigs invasion of 1961 .
despite u . s . hostility , castro remains cuban leader at age 80 , although bowel surgery forced him to hand over formal power to his brother raul last july .
escalante said effective cuban security measures around castro and the cuban leader’s intuitive “nose” for danger has kept him alive .
to this day , few cubans know castro’s whereabouts , whether he is in a hospital or at home in a residential compound in western havana called “point zero . ”

absolute cleavage : mary shows off hers in a sexy green dress in the party scene .
barbie doll anatomy : ruby wants this for real , out of a desire to not be seen as a sex object .
ruby , mary ' s first client , has her nipples cut off and her vagina sewn together .
two twins wanted their left arms exchanged , and horns placed on their foreheads .
: the first and last thing we see mary do in the movie is suture incisions . the first time , she is practicing on a turkey .
the last time , she is trying to stitch up a fatal stab wound in her stomach .
black and grey morality : one one hand , mary tortures people with surgical modification . on the other hand , her targets are bad people .
break the cutie : mary just wanted to become a surgeon , but between finances , asshole professors , murder . . . she ' s barely there by the end .
brilliant , but lazy : subverted - mary ' s lecturers believe her to be this , but when she misses lectures it ' s due to money troubles or other mitigating circumstances .
celebrity resemblance : beatress deliberately cultivates this , but the celebrity she is changing herself to resemble is a cartoon character .
what a vengeful mary does to dr . grant , utilising body modification as the form of torture .
creepy twins : the soska sisters . their introductory scene has one of them kiss a stripper , only to bite her tongue off !
dark chick : mary . dark hair , black clothing , lack of emotion .
a date with rosie palms : one of mary ' s customers tries to masturbate after having some work done on his penis . . . before it had a chance to heal . mary points out what a moronic thing this is to do .
deadpan snarker : mary , so much . everything she says is practically dripping with sarcasm .
despair event horizon : mary , contemplating the strip club job , and then coming to grips with the impromptu surgery afterwards .
disproportionate retribution : narrowly averted . mary comes close to maiming and / or killing another woman for giving billy head , but ultimately decides to not go through with it .

eye scream : the man mary first performs surgery on has had one of his eyes gouged out .
fanservice : katharine isabelle in lingerie . and that green dress that exposed her cleavage in dr . walsh ' s party .
faux affably evil : walsh and grant . they barely try to hide it .
from what dr . walsh says at the party
dr . black , i see you ' ve met mary .
and his description of what he does , one can figure out that the man who greets and drugs mary is dr . black . back at the club bobby needed mary because
black is gone
. this and mary starting to lose her focus hints at what ' s about to come
during dr . grant ' s lecture , he describes the length of time amputated extremities - namely the arms , hands and fingers - can last before it ' s too late to re - attach them .
mary later removes all four of his limbs as part of the torture she inflicts on him .
while in ruby ' s apartment , mary sees some photographs of ruby with a man , and beatress comments that the man is ruby ' s husband .
said husband turns up in the ending to murder mary , after beating the shit out of beatress , in revenge for ruby ' s surgery .
: beatress is a very upbeat , perky woman throughout the whole film . the only exception is
gentle giant : lance , who is generally nice to mary even after she goes off the deep end .
girl on girl is hot : not when one of the women bites the other ' s tongue off , it isn ' t .
: aside from a close - up of mary starting to remove ruby ' s nipple , as well as some of her surgery on the twins , none of her other surgical procedures are shown on camera . later , when
, we don ' t see the blows inflicted on him , but we do see mary getting splattered with blood .
mary surgically alters dr . grant ' s genitals during her torture of him , but exactly what she does to them is never shown . given what he did to her , it ' s possible she removed them entirely .
during ruby ' s surgery , there are several closeups of mary starting to remove a nipple .
ironic echo : mary to dr . grant -
surgeons can ' t afford to make mistakes .
dr . walsh ' s establishing character moment is asking mary to deliver the bad news to a family that their father has just had a heart attack . . . and then to go back two seconds later and tell them that he has died . regardless of any hard lessons he is trying to impart to his interns , this is incredibly insensitive to the patient ' s family .
dr . grant constantly berates mary for being lazy and not paying attention while she ' s clearly one of his better students .
beatress ' s rude niece tessa barely cares for anything other than her next hit of cocaine .
legitimate businessmen ' s social club : although it ' s never outright stated , billy and the other club owners are heavily implied to be mafia .
: drs . grant and walsh , not to mention the young surgeon at the party (
i cut people up for a living !
) . and after a while ,
: detective dolor is investigating first dr . grant ' s disappearance , then dr . walsh ' s . he gets nowhere until the very end ,
ruby ' s husband . his only effect on the plot is that he kills mary at the end and even then it comes off as a diabolus ex machina .
. at one point , she even threatens a woman purely for giving billy oral sex .
dr . grant rapes mary at a party after having her drugged . she responds by having him captured so she can torture him with body modification techniques . . . and keep him alert throughout the whole process .
red baron : mary picks up the suitably macabre nickname of
bloody mary
among the online body modification community .
uses body modification on an unwilling dr . grant and keeps him alive . he is left unable to call for help or run away .
rule of symbolism : every song in the soundtrack , whether it ' s being played over the scene or is actually in it .
, two strippers get the hell out of the toilets when mary walks in . the girl who turned up for her interview doesn ' t , as she has no idea who mary even is .
she ' s got legs : mary is often seen in outfits that show off her long legs , often coupled with stiletto heels .

begins her torture of dr . grant by splitting his tongue against his will .

tmz reports that a page from an unnamed ahs actor’s script was stolen while filming in new orleans this week , and even though it’s only one page , it’s allegedly for a scene that reveals how pepper the pinhead ( right ) wound up in the briarcliff manor during season 2 , “asylum” .
there’s no word on whether pepper’s alleged scene will be the first official tie between seasons on screen , but if leaked , it would likely ruin whatever elaborate plan murphy has for unveiling the connections between seasons .
“the theft and unauthorized distribution of our scripts is a very serious matter and we will take all appropriate steps necessary to vigorously protect our intellectual property . ”
in the meantime , we won’t be reading any spoilers that will possibly leak as a result of this . we will , however , be all over any bonus footage from the cutting room floor of an oiled - up dandy mott ( finn wittrock ) working out in his underwear . somebody get on that , please .

in mid - 1990s america , we follow the tragic sex life of jolie jolson , a wannabe thug ( and great - great - grandson of legendary vaudevillian al jolson ) in suburban washington as he strives to become something he can never be – black .
ew . just ew . very poorly made , poorly acted , and poorly written . should i be saying more ? i ' m very disappointed that i wasted my time on this movie !
# harmonykorine ' s # kids versión blanquitos clasemedieros . # americanmilkshake es banal y poco divertida . urltoken
strange and slow , but i couldn ' t help loving this movie . interesting commentary on race , high school basketball culture and politics and teenage growing pains . seemingly superficial but addressing profound issues in compelling ways , if nothing else this film is a fascinating social commentary of some particularly usamerican institutions and rites of passage .
jolie , the great - great grandson of vaudeville entertainer al jolson , is the whitest kid in suburban maryland . it ' s the time of the oj simpson trial , pagers , motorola startac phones and the super nes . it ' s the advent of the internet , replete with 8 - bit graphics , dial - up modems and slow drawing pages .
it ' s against this backdrop of the mid 9os that we see the mundane day - to - day of high school life through the eyes of jolie . jolie who desperately wants to be black because he believes all the myths about thug - life ( his words ) and the perceived benefits of making the varsity basketball team . it ' s fitting then that his last year of high school may well end up being the most life - changing for jolie - - if only he could get his head out of his own ass .
there are probably some good intentions behind this attempt to deconstruct the
wigger
phenomenon — a superficial and manipulative boy who because he ' s white gets all sorts of advantages within the magnet program in a mostly of - color high school and fucks around with two girls , including one young black woman who ' s already pregnant — but the humor is all so self - conscious and glib and the moral complexity so adolescent that it ends up insulting everyone involved or anyone who might take the issues seriously . the film also wears its directorial ineptitude as some sort of indie badge of honor . obnoxious in that special kevin - smith way .

e . j . vilche thought the young folks shooting video at the sub shop near his takoma park apartment last summer might have been doing a school project . until one of them asked whether he wanted to play the role of the heavy in their feature movie .
“she said , ‘can you do a mean face ? ’ so i gave her the mean face , ” recalled vilche , 22 , a busboy at p . f . chang’s in rockville . “i thought about my ex - girlfriend , and i used every muscle in my face . ”
“i didn’t even know it was an audition , ” he said , “and i got the part . ”
but the little local project has gone bigger than its many volunteers ever imagined . the film was selected for the sundance film festival earlier this year and , after being picked for distribution by independent - film guru kevin smith , will open friday in limited theatrical release and become available on video - on - demand systems at the same time . ( in the washington area , comcast and itunes will both carry the title . )
“i’m going to get my friends and pop some popcorn and watch it on the first night , ” said vilche , who has seen only the theatrical trailer so far . “i had no idea it was going to be this big a deal . ”
neither did martha bergmark . when her son david andalman asked whether he could borrow the family house for a little movie project , she and her husband , elliott andalman , said sure . they were thinking of the modest short films their cinema - loving boy had been making since he was a student .
“it never occurred to us that we’d have 25 or 30 people wandering around our house for a month , not to mention the enormous panel truck that spent the night in our driveway , ” said bergmark , a civil rights lawyer who splits her time between takoma park and hattiesburg , miss .
the blue frame house on montgomery avenue became studio central , with wardrobe racks in the living room , sets built in the attic and daily shooting schedules lining the dining room table each morning by 5 a . m . the basement became the art department , crammed with mid - 90s props , from boxy computer monitors to vintage video games . bergmark shared her home office with rows of massive hard drives where the crew would back up the day’s digital footage each night .
“it was a madhouse , ” she said , “like summer camp on steroids . but it was a blast ; how often do you get to watch your adult son work ? ”
the movie , which andalman wrote and then directed with mariko munro , is loosely based on his own experience as a teenage takoma parker negotiating the racial and sports cliques of town and high school , one of the most diverse in the washington region .
andalman was a varsity basketball player , and the film’s main character is eager to make the team largely to claim some of the cool vibe of the black players . under the not - very - watchful eye of permissive parents , the young man seeks ways to swap the “geek” culture of his math - science magnet class for the “gangsta” culture of hip - hop and rap .
“this was the era of dr . dre and tupac and snoop , ” andalman said by phone from california . “i do think some of the kids from the rougher neighborhoods were at the top of the totem pole in terms of being cool . ”
in the film , those neighborhoods are symbolized by the “maple avenue towers , ” the real - life apartments near the takoma park town hall . that is where the filmmakers did a lot of their sidewalk casting . soulie kondeh , a 22 - year - old blair grad who lives six floors below vilche in the essex house , found himself playing one of the basketball players . they often shot at peter’s sub shop , which is a hub of maple avenue action in both the movie and real life .
“i had to wear these baggy ’90s clothes , huge jeans and stuff , ” said kondeh , a rapper and starbucks barista . “my friends were coming by and clowning me for that . ”
the producers brought in professional actors , too , but asked them to stay with volunteer families . ellie hamburger ( who is married to washington post reporter tom hamburger ) said a silver spring neighbor asked whether they could put up two young performers . over evening meals they learned that one , shareeka epps , had won an independent spirit award for her role in “half nelson . ” the other , georgia ford , turned out to be hollywood aristocracy .
“she said her mother was a screenwriter , ” hamburger recalled . “i said , ‘oh , anything i might have seen ? ’ and she said , ‘well , ‘e . t . ’ was one . ’ ”
ford’s mother is screenwriter melissa mathison . and her father ? actor harrison ford .
epps , a brooklyn resident , said she was so taken with the town that she put takoma park on her list of “places i could live . ” she was surprised by the number of mixed - race families she saw . ( epps plays the black daughter of white parents in the film . )
she did notice a lot of speed humps , and lot of talk about speed humps in the city council and among residents . “you guys really go hard on the speed humps , don’t you ? ” she said with a laugh . “first of all , in brooklyn we call them speed bumps , and we don’t talk about them so much . ”
to cast other roles , andalman and munro called local high school drama departments and community theaters . the father of andalman’s boyhood best friend played the hero’s father in the movie .
“i have lots of experience with being a father of children in the ’90s , ” said richard lorr , a retired government lawyer .
lorr has already seen the finished film , having traveled with about 20 friends and neighbors to see the sundance premiere . beholding his own face in billboard dimensions was a shock , he said .
