National Film, Girls ages 14 and 16
Posted by crazeagency on Thursday, June 10, 2010
Oscar
winning producer Greg Shapiro's Kingsgate Films is currently in pre-production
on the feature film "Detachment", and Chrystie Street Casting is seeking two
girls ages 14 and 16 to star in the film. Greg Shapiro has produced such films
as The Hurt Locker, the Harold & Kumar films, and the upcoming Johnny Depp
film The Rum Diary. The casting call has gone out in both New York and Los
Angeles.
Here is what they are seeking:
This film revolves around mature subject matter.
A small, pretty, 14 Year old girl.
A slightly overweight 16 year old girl.
Erica: 14 years old, any ethnicity. A homeless prostitute who is pretty, small and pale, she is accustomed to being sexually and physically abused. When Henry takes pity on her and brings her home so she can get cleaned up and receive medical attention, she propositions him and is surprised by his refusals. While she lives at Henry’s they fall into a domestic routine, but the situation is temporary. Prone to philosophizing, Erica takes up journaling and confesses her all-encompassing love for Henry. She’s devastated and breaks down into hysterics when he sends her away.
Meredith: 16 years old, any ethnicity. A bit chunky but beautiful, she’s an extremely sensitive, intelligent, and unhappy high school student who finds solace in art and photography. For Meredith, Henry is a godsend teacher, and she is deeply upset when her affection for him is not returned. Troubled and sad, suicidal and possibly suffering from an eating disorder, Meredith poisons a huge batch of cupcakes and hands them out for free, saving the most lethal cake for herself in a school-wide tragedy.
