Seeking: Bryce: [13 YEAR OLD BRYCE] 13 years old, with "dazzling blue eyes," a good looking kid in the seventh/eighth grade, bright, average, capable of more than he knows, Bryce has been struggling for years with the unwanted crush that his next door neighbor, Juli Baker, has on him. Much of his life so far has been geared towards ignoring her or actively trying to put her off, and in doing so he has, not intentionally, either hurt her feelings or made her think less of him. Unfortunately, this year Bryce suddenly makes the startling discovery that he has feelings for Juli--confusing and unwanted but undeniable and real--and that his sometimes awkward and sometimes hurtful behavior towards her has now made her first angry, then indifferent towards him. Faced with the possibility of losing something precious that he's devalued his whole life, Bryce, to his credit, finally gets some backbone and starts working at getting the girl he loves...LEAD (12). This film takes place in 1957-1963.

(NEW) Norman Mailer’s The Deer Park
Casting for a staged reading at The Nuyorican Poets Café (236 E.3rd St.) of Norman Mailer’s The Deer Park. Reading will take place on Monday, June 15. Please note, this is a labor of love so there is no pay, but this will be the last production with his personal imprint so you could say it has some historic import. (He had asked me to co-direct a film of it with him and be in it after our last outing at Makor/ 92nd St.Y in 2007, which Norman attended.). We are using this staged reading to get producers to look at the play for a full production as a tribute to Norman’s legacy. The day I’ve picked is an off-night so that people could more easily fit it into their schedule and the commitment on the part of the actors is fairly minimal. The performance will be Monday June 15@ 7PM.
Elena - (30) is a tour de force role for an actress. She is a ‘sometime flamenco dancer’, a Carmen, stunning enough to be the mistress of a major Hollywood player, high strung yet vulnerable, self destructive enough to be suicidal, and ill at ease with sophistication - she is blue collar but American born. She is the kind of woman who lived in heels in the fifties and used her physicality as her weaponry. It should be added that the play is one of language - it is Norman Mailer’s writing after all. A youngish native born Anna Magnani might be right for her. Or a Jennifer Lopez. Charles Francis Eitel - (60’s) based on Elia Kazan. He has a fire in the belly and considerable charm, but since he has vestiges of integrity - at least for a Hollywood film director - he is pained deeply by what he sees as the wasting of his talent. In short, he is drowning in self-disgust. A sophisticated if self-educated man. Prototype would be George C. Scott in Dr.Strangelove, though this is not a parody. Or Jose Ferrer in Cyrano. Collie Munshin - (40ish) a hard driving producer: an anaconda in a town known for its reptiles. Crude, but not stupid, a survivor. Supplies some of the humor in the play. He's married the boss's daughter - (based on the son in law of Louis B Mayer). Pretty ethnic. Rod Steiger did a very similar character in The Big Knife.
