CAM ARCHER

The latest film by 23-year-old wunderkind Cam Archer, American Fame, Pt. 1: Drowning River Phoenix, narrated by Lydia Lunch and featuring 15-year-old Jasper Bel as River Phoenix, screens at the AFI Fest on November 10 and 13.

Archer recently completed American Fame, Pt. 2: Forgetting Jonathan Brandis about the former child star who committed suicide in 2003, but so far there is no word on when or where the film, also narrated by Lydia Lunch, will premiere.

Earlier this year Archer completed Godly Boyish, a short film narrated by Joan Jett and featuring Jasper Bel and 14-year-old Cassidy Field; The Cold Ones about a sister and brother coping with their father’s murder and their mother’s abandonment of the family; and a music video for Imperial Teen’s “Our Time”.

His debut feature script Wild Tigers I Have Known, which Gus Van Sant is exec producing and Linda Barry is producing, was included in the 2004 IFP Market. Archer’s bobbycrush, featuring Jasper Bel and Cassidy Field, was nominated for a Student Academy Award and screened earlier this summer on the Sundance Channel.

Each of Archer’s films were shot by cinematographer Aaron Platt.

    Sounds like he is busy. All the movies seem to have a subtle undertone… something about the nature of boys when they become men. The rebelliousness, the confusion, the need for fathers etc. The River Pheonix one looks interesting. That guy was certainly an interesting person, and I miss his rather unusual flavor of acting. One always has to think, “where would they be now?” Would River have acted alongside Jonny Depp in Pirates of The Carribean? That might have been a great combination.

    At the age of 23 he is already at the prime of his career. I certainly hope he will be one of the most sought-after film makers in the next few years. My cousin from the US is an avid fan of the man and I can’t imagine my cousin who is stuck in front of his DVD player whole day.
