| PRESS RELEASE: CRAZY
RICHARD TO OPEN AUSFEST "Utterly
compelling. Brilliantly written, beautifully observed…" CRAZY
RICHARD has been announced as the Opening Night feature of AUSFEST, the
first Australian film festival dedicated to digital filmmaking. The screening
marks the Australian Premiere of CRAZY RICHARD, which has already received
rave reviews at film festivals in Europe and America. Filmmakers
Dean Francis and Katrina Mathers are delighted to be guests of the Festival
and look forward to presenting their work at the state-of-the-art Judith
Wright Centre for Contemporary Art in Brisbane on October 23rd. CRAZY RICHARD is a dark mockumentary satire about an ex-child star’s tragic attempt to make a public comeback. Written and directed by Melbourne filmmakers Katrina Mathers and Dean Francis. The filmmakers will be in attendance at the festival. "Tremendously
witty and charming film. You’ll be surprised and delighted. The film’s
stars are all extremely well cast and the writing is spot on. The filmmakers
have really captured the essence of a modern phenomenon…" "Brilliant
example of low budget movie-making" "Better
than an episode of "E! True Hollywood Story". This wicked pastiche
of Reality TV is not just a shrewd character study about the price of
fame; it also skillfully addresses issues of media manipulation and 'why
people watch'" "Is
it fact of fiction? Decide for yourself as your jaw drops even further." For
