His first film shot with sound, Feelings is a
two and a half minute movie made as an NYU film school assignment in
1984. Solondz himself takes the lead role of a sensitive young man who
finds he can no longer endure life without his beloved (Jan Meredith).
Photographed by Andy Day, the film is set to Todd Solondz's personal
rendition of the song "Feelings" by Morris Albert. Cedric Klapisch (The
Spanish Apartment, Un Aire de Famille), who included Solondz in
his own NYU film In Transit, worked on this production as
assistant cameraman. |
