Synopsis

Soon after college, mental illness struck Buddy Clayman, piercing his career in Hollywood. Thirty years of treatment, medications, and life have passed. Without waiting for his symptoms to vanish, Buddy is now making the movie of his life - he is both the subject and one of the directors of OC87. This innovative, funny, and touching documentary champions a message of mental health recovery. The story contrasts Buddy's past (including Major Depression and Bipolar Disorder) with his current struggles -and successes- with Asperger's Syndrome and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Reclaiming his quest as a filmmaker, Bud chronicles his ups and downs, the lived experience of what he calls "the fight inside my head," and complex tensions in a loving family. Along the way, he criss-crosses the country to connect with a TV star and a radio news anchor - each reveals a personal arc of mental illness and recovery. Behind the lens, a parallel journey unfolds as we see Buddy the Director grapple with the unpredictable challenges of making an incisive, highly personal documentary a movie that he believes will transform him, as well as those who see i

Per Theater Chart: Moonrise is Intouchable

May 30th, 2012

To call Moonrise Kingdom's opening impressive would be an understatement. The film earned more than $500,000 in just four theaters for an average of $130,749. ... I looked up three different sources to make sure that wasn't a typo. That's the ninth best per theater average of all time, and the best for a live action film. (Disney used to release the animated tentpole releases in one or two theaters for a prestige release a week before their wide releases and these films fill the top eight spots.) Les Intouchables placed second with an average of $25,263 in four theaters, which is excellent and suggests potential for expansion. The overall box office leader, Men in Black 3, was the final film in the $10,000 club with an average of $12,851. More...

Limited Releases are (Moon) Rising

May 25th, 2012

It should be a strong week on the limited release front. Not only are there a number of releases, but four of them are earning overwhelmingly positive reviews. Granted, not all four of them have a great shot at mainstream success. OC87 is earning perfect reviews so far, but it is a documentary about a man with mental illnesses, and that screams art house circuit. Oslo, 31 August is earning nearly perfect reviews, but it is a Norwegian film and those movies don't have a large built in audience, not even on the art house circuit. The Intouchables has made $300 million internationally and French films do have a built in audience, at least compared to other foreign language films. Moonrise Kingdom has amazing reviews, a proven director, and an impressive ensemble cast. If I were a betting man, I would put money on this movie. More...
