LIVING IN OBLIVION
(1995, USA, 92 min)
Directed by Tom DiCillo

SYNOPSIS:
Tom DiCillo’s hilarious satire of the motion picture business stars Steve Buscemi as a wildly optimistic director who must navigate the absurd reality of low-budget filmmaking. Cleverly employing virtually every technical gimmick in the movie trade, the film features an all star cast of indie film favorites including Catherine Keener, Dermot Mulroney, James Le Gros, and Peter Dinklage.
