Acute Misfortune in cinemas Australia-wide now
Acute Misfortune, a film I was lucky enough to work on and that’s very dear to my heart, has been released nationally in cinemas. You can see the trailer here, and screening times at the official website here.
About the film:
“Erik Jensen was an ambitious 19 year-old journalist at The Sydney Morning Herald when Archibald Prize-Winning painter, Adam Cullen, with a career retrospective at the Art Gallery of NSW, invited him to write his biography. This is the story of the four-and-a-half years leading to Cullen’s death at the age of 46. It is the story of their increasingly claustrophobic relationship.
Based on Erik Jensen’s award-winning biography of Adam Cullen, ACUTE MISFORTUNE is the story of the biographer and his subject. It is one of the most acclaimed Australian films of the year, revealing an iconic artist and lauded author in unsparing detail.
ACUTE MISFORTUNE is a film about theft and the commerce of theft, the instability of lies and of coming through an abusive relationship to find meaning in its wake.
These are true events, told almost entirely in real dialogue. Featuring AACTA Best Actor Winner, Daniel Henshall (Snowtown, The Babadook), and Toby Wallace (Romper Stomper, The Turning) the debut feature of Thomas M. Wright (Sweet Country, Top of the Lake) is a meticulously researched film that was named one of the best films of the year in The Monthly Awards and by Screen Daily and received The Age Critics Prize at Melbourne International Film Festival.”
Filming Hearts and Bones
I’m currently in Sydney working on feature film Heats and Bones. You can read more about the film here. It should be out in 2019 sometime.
Studying in LA
I’ve been in LA for the past three weeks, learning all about prosthetics - how to sculpt them, make the moulds, and run the pieces with silicone, foam and a few other materials. I’ve been learning at Cinema Makeup School, and I only have a week until I finish which is a little sad, but I have a shoot to come back to so no complaints here!
