2012 Sundance Predictions: Untitled Mark Webber Drama

Part of the clan of actors à la Jesse Eisenberg, Lou Pucci Taylor and Paul Dano who’ve built their careers on solid indie material and as a consequence, could be tour guides for Park City’s Main Street’s many nooks and crannies, Mark Webber follows his directorial debut Explicit Ills (which preemed at SXSW in 2008) with a drama that might not yet have a title but does include Michael Cera, Shannyn Sossamon, Jason Ritter and Amanda Seyfried (with who he interviewed in this comedy short).

#70. Untitled Mark Webber Drama – Mark Webber

Part of the clan of actors à la Jesse Eisenberg, Lou Pucci Taylor and Paul Dano who’ve built their careers on solid indie material and as a consequence, could be tour guides for Park City’s Main Street’s many nooks and crannies, Mark Webber follows his directorial debut Explicit Ills (which preemed at SXSW in 2008) with a drama that might not yet have a title but does include Michael Cera, Shannyn Sossamon, Jason Ritter and Amanda Seyfried (with who he interviewed in this comedy short). Since this is a heavy drama, I see this in the U.S Dramatic Comp section before Premieres.

Gist: A drama centered on the relationship between a young father and his infant son after the death of the boy’s mother.

Producers: Webber, Elizabeth Destro (Cherry), Mollie Engelhart and Matt Sprague
