WINNOWING (THE MOVIE) AND AN INTERVIEW WITH WILLIAM MALTESE
SEVERAL months ago, consummate author and screenwriter William Maltese offered author/actor Daniel S. Janik and author/actress Setsuko Tsuchiya a written-exclusively-for-them screenplay about auditioning for the “Big One.” To quote the Bard, “All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely Players…” What could be more central to contemporary life than the constant auditioning/interviewing/screening to which we are endlessly subject? WINNOWING — https://janik.yolasite.com/winnowing.php — is now a movie in the late stage of development (pre-production) in which the lead characters, Setsuko and I, read excerpts from seven of Mr. Maltese’s great books before two strict but supportive casting directors, again played by Setsuko and me.
Several days ago, I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing William regarding the production of WINNOWING and have posted the interview on my WINNOWING webpage cited above. Some “extra” topics included mention of William Maltese’s personal favorite books; his first screenplay, THE MOONSTONE MURDERS; actors Chan and Kun; and a duck named Mr. Maltese. I invite you to join us in a short, entertaining and informative interview, as WINNOWING moves from blocking to shotlisting, in anticipation of production and the start of filming here in fabulous Hawaiiwood.
I am currently seeking an experienced Oahu-based crew, my first priority being a cinematographer who is familiar with a Leica D-Lux 6 camera or has his/her own 4K camera with 50mm 1.2 lens, for an anticipated five days of filming. AND a publicist/distributor. Are you one? I’d love to meet. In the meantime, check my WINNOWING website regularly for behind-the-scenes photo/video vignettes, interviews like the one with William Maltese and other informative, revealing details.
