Feature Film Running On Empty Presented by Lionsgate Films
Manage episode 434034222 series 2846486
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
“For my first feature I wanted to make something interesting, funny, and heartfelt with a real independent film sensibility similar to films I loved growing up in the 80s and 90s. I see the film as an anti-rom com of sorts and wanted it to feel timeless.
The casting was crucial to create the tone of the film and the characters that drive the story. The entire cast was amazing to work with. It felt like a never-ending summer camp on set.
I hope that the audience is entertained, amused, touched and most of all enjoy the ride before it's over.”
Filmmaker Daniel André
FILMMAKER BIOGRAPHY
Daniel André is a filmmaker, artist, and music producer born in Cuernavaca, Mexico and raised in NJ, just outside New York City. Mr. André started acting at the age of five and trained in Stanislavski at age nine, working professionally in theater, television, and film throughout his teens. Mr. André studied Film and Media Arts at the University of Arizona and Pima College in Tucson, AZ, and has a degree in Film & Digital Arts.
In 2022 under his own Analog 77 Films, Mr. André wrote, produced, and directed RUNNING ON EMPTY starring Keir Gilchrist, Lucy Hale (The Hating Game), Jim Gaffigan (Linoleum), Rhys Coiro (Entourage), Francesca Eastwood (Old), Monica Potter (Parenthood), Jay Pharoah (SNL) and more. Currently, Daniel is working on his next film THE LAST WILL with GMT FILMS, a biopic based on the memoir, “CURED- The Tale of Two Imaginary Boys” by Lol Tolhurst, one of the founding members of The Cure and a biopic about the life of African American author Iceberg Slim.
SYNOPSIS
Keir Gilchrist, Lucy Hale, Francesca Eastwood, and comic legend Jim Gaffigan star in a brilliantly quirky romantic comedy about celebrating life and living it to its fullest. Mortimer is an odd but clever young man living a lukewarm existence in California’s San Fernando Valley until he receives some life-changing news. Determined to make the most of every day, Mort sets out on a spirited quest to find meaning in his existence and discovers the girl of his dreams along the way.
