On his death, Abel Edwards, a billionaire entertainment mogul, is cryogenically frozen, hoping to live again in some distant future. Decades later they still cannot bring him back but the Corporation decide to clone him, hoping to revive their failing fortunes – but is this Abel able? Steven Soderbergh (Traffic, Ocean’s Eleven) heard about this movie, shot on miniDV entirely against a green screen, and was so intrigued he became the Executive Producer. A year later this feature film had been “made on a Mac” – is this the future for “home entertainment” ABLE EDWARDS, is an object lesson in what can be done for $30,000 and a home computer. The movie has a great script, actors, and sparse sets-and fake backgrounds. That's what you have to get over, moment you walk in. It's a `greenscreen movie,' like Sky Captain, but less polished. It's dark and sad but not depressing. There is a mild underscore of humor throughout the piece that is hard to describe... it's almost sinister and defintely worth seeing. Check out the article APPLE did on this movie |
