Some filmmakers burn through a lot of footage to capture that one moment of cinematic magic. For producer Todd Hunter, (Chris Pina) that magic proves to be as elusive as a free lunch in Hollywood. “TAKE 22” is a documentary that takes a peek into the world of independent filmmaking. As production on Hunter’s “SEQUESTERED” spirals out of control, he finds himself struggling with difficult and overly self-involved actors, a cinematically-challenged director, an angry screenwriter, dwindling production funds and the Mob, among other things.
Miles Tenant, (Rick Overton) an eccentric and demanding director of Off-Off-Off Broadway productions, is given the chance to helm a feature film. Following the casting session debacle (Greg Travis), Miles decides to cast his theatre troupe from New York. (The Groundlings) But egos and nerves begin to unravel when next-door neighbor Mr. Finney (Dave Thomas) shows up to reveal that their shooting location was the site of a mass murder. Further complicating matters is a menacing screenwriter (Tom Wilson) who keeps showing up despite being banned from the set for threatening the producer with violence and a law-suit.
Other notable performances were contributed by:
Cathryn Michon (Muffin Top), Scott LaRose (Seinfeld), Patrick Devine, Greg Travis (Watchman), Wendy Cutler, Bret Reilly, Brian Dullaghan, Stephanie Stearns, Stephen Sheridan, Chelsea, Taylor & Ben Bayouth, Claude Stuart, Stacey Travis (Modern Family), Jason Leon, Joanne Paolantonio, Joe Liss, John Scarangello, Kent Sublette (Writer for Saturday Night Live), Kurt Perkowski, Mike Cuffe, Rebecca Clark, Rob Wheeler, Robert Clotworthy (American Sniper), Robert S. Ryan, Rodney Lee Conover (Bachelor Man), Susan Warner, Tony Edwards and Wendy Cutler.
TAKE 22 also co-stars the gifted and spirited Wendie Jo Sperber (the “Back to the Future” films, “Bosom Buddies”). Wendie Jo lost her battle with breast cancer at the age of 46 in the middle of a rich and rewarding career as an actress. “Take 22” is dedicated to her and was her last film.
