As the choice of opening night at the Florida Film Festival, "The Set TV" defines exactly the right tone for a festival of 10 days of movies: smart, funny, thoughtful, and top-class. Written and directed by Jake Kasdan, who has worked in live television shows like "Freaks and Geeks" and directing films, including "Orange County", the independent comedy new insights behind the doors of a television network, like a new show struggles to bring the small screen.
DavidDuchovny plays Mike Klein, author and creator of a new television series called "The Wexler Chronicles," is based on his life after the suicide of his brother. The story begins with Zach, an actor over-the-top young (Fran Kranz), participation in the final casting. Although Mike Zach invited to audition for the other actors do look better in comparison, the network executive (Sigourney Weaver and Ioan Gruffudd) give an ultimatum will be only the pilot, when Zachis the star.
As he assured both love the project, go to change the story, tone, and almost everything about the show. Meanwhile, Mike, a man whose wife (Justine Bateman) is pregnant with his second son struggling with his conscience for the adaptation of its high concept in a silly sitcom lowest common denominator. not stress how serious the situation is back in spasm and has a panic attack in hospital. His brazen manager Alice (JudyGreer succeeds) to provide a challenging round on all positive results disappointing.
Mike looks at his dream fall further during the production, promotion and dissemination of the series. In addition to thematic differences from the original concept, the show's name changed to "Call Me Crazy," based on how certain people have reacted in a shopping center on a poll, and the soundtrack show punctuated with flatulence effect. Duchovny offers nice performance as the sensitiveBalance rational and irrational insensitive Weaver's Executive Network - one that destroys the integrity of a show like "The Wexler Chronicles," while promoting the success of the network "Slut Wars."
Coming to the movies "The TV" is anyone still talk on the CRT, but who never considered daunting writing for television.
