Amazon.com has produced a series of five short films distributed only on Amazon.com as a free holiday gift to its customers. Each Tuesday from November 9 through today, Amazon.com released a new film in the Amazon Theater series, which customers can view directly from the Amazon.com homepage. All five films are available for viewing on Amazon.com through the end of the holiday season.

The final film in the Amazon Theater short film series, "Careful What You Wish For," stars Geoffrey Gould, Patty Lotz, Raymond O'Connor, Pras Michel and Daryl Hannah and is directed by Acne Films. The film debuts today on Amazon.com's homepage.

"With offices in Stockholm and London, Acne Films is an offshoot of Swedish-based design agency Acne. Acne Films has been producing and directing film projects since 1997. Early work includes five seasons of sketches on the hit late-night European talk show "Sen Kvall Med Luuk"; title sequences for several television shows; and music videos, including the 1999 Swedish Grammy Winner "Four Big Speakers" by Whale. The first foray for Acne Films in the American market was ESPN's "Shelf Ball" TV spots. Acne Film is now expanding its reach to all kinds of filmmaking, including documentaries, short films and feature films. Acne Films currently has seven directors working in different constellations."

I worked on this short; I was surprised to stumble across this blog entry, I was not aware of it!
It was a fun shoot on which to work.

The present-day bedroom scenes took a day (the 1970's scene was shot the following day).
I'll be forwarding the blog entry URL to my costar Patty; I'm sure she'll be equally surprised.
Thanks!
