STRAY.08 (Lilly's vision beyond the grave)

[malicestories]

You haven't received nearly enough credit for this artwork of yours. Where was this filmed?

@malicestories wow, this came at a good time. Thanks for your words. This was shot in Ithaca, NY, gem of the Finger Lakes. The primary location: the Old Miller Farm, and its cathedral like barn. Thanks again. TR

@trhusserl

I'm honestly surprised you haven't received more credit for this. This is amazing. I sense a bit of David Lynch's influence, correct?

[trhusserl]

@malicestories I do like David Lynch's Blue Velvet and a few other films. In 2003, Stray was accepted into a few small time festivals, but didn't receive much play. One festival (Athens, Ohio) thought it was too far from the relevant issues of the day: I think the quote was, "Doesn't he know there's a war going on?" I see this as an anti war film--the war on our culture.

Thanks again for checking in--feel like I fell asleep while fishing and caught something on a pole I had forgotten about.

@trhusserl oops, it was 2004.

@trhusserl

That's odd. I really love this film you've made. Any chances of another film?

I like it a lot -- it's unusual, it's wild.

I just spent an enjoyable evening catching up on your work, Jack. I liked everything I saw. What a wonderful comment for me to hear on a day like today.
