On the Scene: the Filming of 'Angelina'
This past Saturday, the Bastion went on location to the filming of 'Angelina', a short collaborative film by comedian Robert Buscemi and local filmmaker Steve Delahoyde. We were cast to play 'listless-and-slightly-annoyed' audience member to Buscemi's Angelina soliloquy, a task that proved nearly impossible as takes were repeated over and over, steadily increasing in ludicrousness as Buscemi and co-star Jared Logan added further and stranger dimensions to the characters, characters who are already absurd and improbable beings from the possibly deranged mind of Buscemi. Sufficed to say, we were physically worn out by the end of the shoot. Add to that the 20 minute black-out period when all of the technical equipment combined with the season's first air-conditioning blew the circuits in the back of the Lincoln Restaurant, and our afternoon proved to be delightfully weird.
