You all know that I'm not one to toot my own horn (in fact, I don't even own a horn yet), but I have to invite you to come see my new short film, "First Bath". You can link to it from my Web page (www.gerryclark.com/Samantha), or you can get to it directly from one of these links:

The movie was actually shot some time ago, but we've been working hard on it in post production. Frankly, the biggest problem was the studio -- we argued back and forth for weeks over the final cut. Finally, I had to put my foot down. Unfortunately, that didn't have much of an impact, since my feet are rather small. Then I used my secret weapon. I won't tell you what that weapon is, but I will tell you that you can see it on display in the movie. And when I use it, I ALWAYS get my way. Just ask my mom and dad...
The film is shot in that raw, cinema verite style that is so popular on the indie film circuit these days. The script, lighting and special effects are all top notch, but the best thing about the movie is my performance. I don't want to spoil it for you, but I will tell you this -- everything you see me doing in there is acting. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I love taking baths. But somehow I was able to capture the pathos, the sorrow, the sheer tragedy that is Bath Time. I'm sure you'll agree that it's some of my best work yet.
