I posted this on instagram a few years ago butโ€ฆif you ever wanted to know what kind of kid I was like, you have your exhibit A. This was me forcing my brother to perform in my auteur interpretation of the book, โ€œThe Island of Blue Dolphins.โ€ This was a book that we read in fourth grade, and I guess I couldnโ€™t get enough. Lol Cinematography courtesy of my dad.

For some reason I was always leaning into the british thing as a kid when I would act lol.

Honestly though, coming from a Brit, the accent is kinda good

Can definitely respect that ๐Ÿป

Thanks. No, not really. I never really felt some urge to have some artistic point of view there.

This was awesome! Between the home videos, your photography, and how passionately you speak about film, have you ever persued professional film making?

Nice costume design and blocking.

So I was going off of the performances used in the movie that was made in the 1960s. They speak clearly and with no conjunctions. I wasn't doing an accent. I was just projecting like on stage, and speaking in character. Dig my moccasins lol. Yeah my brother always performed anything I asked him to, always through gritted teeth. This was one of dozens lol. Though we do legit look like native americans lol. I enjoy how my brother is wearing a Batman cape as his costume to be the Chief of the island. I'll have to find the one where we re-enact Star Wars.

Hahaโ€ฆI remember that book. I read it too in grade school. Love your alternating accents for the characters, though I wonder why your Native American heroine sounds like sheโ€™s British lol. Yeah, your brother looks like heโ€™s really into it. Did you threaten to beat him up if he didnโ€™t act in your production?
