The World Premiere of <em>Explicit Ills</em> took place this month at the 2008 SXSW Film Festival. Earlier, I posted <a href="http://www.pronetworks.org/forum/story101844.html" target="_blank">my review</a>. After seeing 20 films, I chose <em>Explicit Ills</em> as one of <a href="http://www.pronetworks.org/forum/story101896.html" target="_blank">my 3 Top Picks</a> of this year's festival. <a href="http://www.pronetworks.org/forum/about101944.html" target="_blank">My interview</a> with lead actors Frankie Shaw and Lou Taylor Pucci can be found several posts back.
<em>Explicit Ills</em> is simply a masterpiece. I sat with stunned silence as the film ended, both in wonderment at what director Mark Webber has been able to achieve as well as in deep thought about what my own role has been in the betterment of society. <em>Explicit Ills</em> will definitely make you think. Whether or not it will lead you to act on your thoughts is up to you.
I sat down with Webber to talk about his triumphant directorial debut as well as the festival experience and his plans for the future.
