PERTH ACTORS WANTED FOR SHORT NOIR FILM

My name is Hamish Meiklejohn and before I begin I'll say that we can't pay anyone for anything. We're students and we're shit poor. So any way I'm a second year film student at ECU and I'm looking for some Perth actors to star in a five minute noir film called Bobby Bigfingers. The film is essentially about a private eye named Bobby bigfingers who is approached by a dame who wants him to find and rescue her husband from the loan shark Skinny Vinnie and his goon The Drummer. It's not the most serious piece but it's very cool. The parts are: Bobby: The main character. A chain smoking private eye who has a complete disregard for his own wellbeing. He needs to be biggish, around the 25 to 35 age mark and he needs to be able to narrate as well as act (it’s a noir film people). So if you like trench coats, hats, cigarettes and bourbon, you'll love Bobby Bigfingers. The Dame: The Dame is a small role but she turns the wheels of the story in motion. Essentially the part requires someone stunning who has the ability to cry on cue (she really misses her husband). So if you'd like to dress up in a forty's style dress and look as glamorous and beautiful as we can make you (like Faye Dunaway in Chinatown or something) then you might like to play the dame. Moby Dick: Moby Dick is Bobby’s unwilling informant. He got his name from a bullet wound that Bobby “accidentally” put in his head a few years ago that ended up looking like a whale’s blowhole. Funny thing is, before the “accident” people just called him Dick… Mostly because he was a dick. Moby isn’t the most likeable character but if you think you’re able to play a weedy, nervous type who’s petrified of Bobby then you might like playing Moby. Someone bald or balding would be good because his head would be easier to apply the prosthetic bullet hole to. The Drummer: The strangest character of the bunch. Essentially a dangerous, mute, supermale retard who beats people to death using his fists as drumsticks, drumming out a horrifying rhythm. The actor for this needs to be a huge burly bastard who’s hair covers his face. He doesn’t need much acting talent because he has no lines… just fists. So if you think you’d like to be a part of short film history (good or bad I don’t know) then give Hamish Meiklejohn a call on 0427097093 Cheers
