Lisa ( played by me ) a young woman forced to exist on the streets of New York City , intermingling with the outcasts of society . Using Tompkins Square Park and its environs as a backdrop , I trace the steps of a woman ’ s decline after she loses her apartment .
MBW : Your use of all of the lingering components at hand is ingenious ... The way you took your characters from Skid Row into our hearts is the work of an angel ... There is obviously an intense motivation behind this sordid collaboration ???
RA : We all walk a fine line . I like working with all types of people , especially , the so called outcasts of society . They are a vanishing breed now . Desperation and suffering opens portals in the mind . I was just grabbing people that I knew would work .
MBW : There is so much meat left on the bones
of grabbing my interest than one of those hyped up expensive phoney baloney block busters of late ... Please allow me to introduce to you Rachel Amodeo ... What would you like to say to the world following this mile long introduction ???
Rachel Amodeo : Hard to add much to an introduction like that . Thanks Marlowe .
MBW : Will you kindly tell us the story of “ What About Me ”
RA : The film portrays the gradual deterioration of of your first film ... yet I am compelled to take a bite into your next one ... Please tell us about this project I have heard rumors about ... How is it progressing and has your first film set you on a new course here or is this one totally fresh and set apart from the last ???
RA : Working title for my new film is “ Rock N Roll Gangster ”. It ’ s about a girl drummer in a Rock N Roll punk band set in the Early 80 ’ s . I ’ ve finished the screenplay and looking for funding to get the film made .
Unlike the first film , I think this one has an ending people will make people happy .
MBW : I know I am speaking solely from my own
