Living in Oblivion (1995)
I finally had a chance to watch Living in Oblivion, written and directed by Tom DiCillo. It’s a quirky little film about filmmaking that will make you laugh and wonder how much of this film is based on real events.
Steve Buscemi stars as a troubled director of a film with no budget, fragile stars (Catherine Keener) and sensitive director of photography (Dermot Mulroney) who wears an eye patch. If you’re at all interested in the filmmaking process then you have to see this cult film.
As an added bonus, “the angry little dwarf” (Peter Dinklage) from the movie Elf has a funny role in this film. Your best bet for renting this will be Zip.ca or Netflix.
