Hey folks, Harry here... Ok, so I know that you are out there wondering... What the hell happened to Mouth and the Independent Film... super-indie hunt rich stuff cool looking film thing?
Well, Mouth had taken a vacation to Paris... he went to that art museum thing... cut a hole in the Mona Lisa and started propositioning strangers to give him a big wet one while he stuck his tongue through the hole... Apparently he's in prison in the cell next to Dr Sotha's... The whole incident was covered up as being embarrassing for the security of the National Art Treasures of France... they replaced the Mona Lisa with a polaroid... and well... Mouth is currently talking to walls day in and day out.
However, his cellmate in France was a loathsome chainsmoking American bloke that goes by the name of Massawyrm. Massawyrm was released after too many shower room incidents and complaints were filed against him. He was expelled from incarceration for lewd and obnoxious behavior befitting the typical American. After listening to Mouth drone on and on and on about his duty and his life in Austin, Massawyrm moved to Austin, Texas where he currently resides with all of the MOUTH's worldly possessions. It's strange really, seeing Massawyrm wearing those rhinestone haltertops of Mouth's... but it still makes me laugh.
Massawyrm is insistent in taking over all of Mouth's duties... so he's become our Crusty Seaman QUINT's errand boy and protoge.... he has become the one we all pick on.... He has developed the magic of inane gab... and other than the constant cloud of cigarette smoke and his oral fixation... he's exactly like Mouth if Mouth was 2 feet taller and looked like Jesus.
So... the last step in taking over the life of MOUTH is taking over MOUTH's column on AICN which he promises to have often and constantly... dedicated to the pleasure of finding magic out there made by people like you. He isn't interested in big budget films... he's an indie whore... a guy that loves to find the jewels that even studios have yet to find... The talent of tomorrow... Shorts, Features, Experiments, Music Videos, animated, live, with blow up dolls, WHATEVER... He wants to see it and see if it is something to share with all of you... That AICN can recommend to the studios, which frankly have their hands full with their own slate as it is.
Now here's the trick.... You need to send your tape or dvd in NTSC Region 1 format to him. Included should be any press materials, credits, contact info and all that good stuff... That way if he likes it... when we write it up we can include all that info so "THEY" whomever "THEY" may be can "DISCOVER" you and take credit for Massawyrm's thankless dedication.
Ok... So how do you get your film to Massawyrm? You send it to:
So what are you waiting on? Fed Ex it, Ups it, Regular Mail it, Pony Express it ... whatever... get it to him now so he can "Discover" you! On your Mark.... Get Set..... GOOOOOOOO!!!!!
