A SeRRious Achievement for Tucci
Share:
“award winning writer-director” to his list of achievements. Tucci
told Scoop that the rough cut of his first short film, Some Trouble of
a SeRRious Nature, won First Place in the Best Short Film (Video) category
at the Long Island International Film Expo.
Sponsored by the Long Island
Film/TV Foundation, the Expo ran July 12-18. Some Trouble beat out more
than 30 other films to win its category.
“This is a terrific
honor,” Tucci told Scoop. “The audience reaction was great,
and now this win really caps off a great educational experience for
me.”
Previously the film had been awarded a finishing grant by the
foundation. Tucci is scheduled to show the film in its finished version at
Comic-Con International: San Diego, Saturday, August 3, at 11:30
A.M.
“So many independent films are very emotionally straining
pictures. They’re supposed to be very serious or quirky,” Tucci told Rob
Worley’s Comics2Film
website after the screening. “Mine was just like a live-action
cartoon.”
Tucci and his wife, Deborah, are awaiting the birth of
their first child any moment now as of this writing.
