Press Release
April 12, 2009
Rat Powered Films is proud to present "RATS IS A FOUR-LETTER WORD" film fest at the Yost Theater in Downtown Santa Ana.
“Rats is a Four-Letter Word” is a diverse collection of short documentaries, dramas, comedies and animation with several of the filmmakers having more than one contribution.
Santa Ana-based Akorn Productions gives us four excerpts from the feature length “Primer” highlighting local artists, historians, and all-around characters.
Michael Mohan’s three works from the “Interrogation” series deal with a misguided high school guidance counselor. A more comedic entry, from the “You Can Awesome” series about, again, misguided personalities, this time in the form of kids TV show hosts.
The shows two lengthiest productions at about ten minutes each are Matthew Lessner’s “Darling, Darling” featuring a young Michael Cera in very strange circumstances and Brent Green’s even stranger animated film “Hadacol Christmas.”
Maurice Chauvet’s “Three-Fifty” is a comedy about an Orwellian video store. A Rat Powered favorite, Jim Munroe’s “My Trip to Liberty City” is a humorous, Canadian take on the videogame Grand Theft Auto. Bob loves T. Arthur Cottam’s “Dirty Words: The Letter C,” Amy… not so much.
Admission is free; donations are welcome.
Films start at 7:00pm
Yost Theater
307 Spurgeon Street, Santa Ana, CA 92701
