Film of the Week // Cold Caller Love, by James Spinney (2011)
Cold Caller Love, by James Spinney (2011)
This week’s Film of the Week is one of the highlights from our November screening at Vibe Live. Produced on a budget of just £300, James Spinney’s Cold Caller Love is a beautiful example of what you can do with a great idea, a bag of talent, and one of them new-fangled DSLR cameras that everyone’s shooting on nowadays.
Subtitled ‘an intergalactic love story’, this is the story of a (suspciously) humanoid alien who finds himself in close quarters with a horse, and is, well… entranced.
Shot on a freezing February day with a pregnant horse that generally refused to play ball, James’ film uses the crisp clear image and cinema-quality depth of field (or lack of) of the Canon 5D to tell a really intimate and original story that – let’s face it – in less subtle hands might have been a little… wierd.
Cold Caller Love is currently up for Film of the Month on Shooting People. If you like it we encourage you to log on and vote for it.
Listen to more from the band, Me & the Neck, here, and watch more from James here.
