Hola
Dannie aqui,

Street Films released a teaser for "The Art of Self Defense"
just in time for its premiere at the SXSW Film Festival that is
currently in full swing here in Austin Texas. "The Art of
Self-Defense" is written and directed by Riley Stearns who is
known for his work directing "Faults" as well as the short
films "The Cub," "Casque," and "Magnificat."
Stearns also is known for his writing on televisions "Tower
Prep" and "My Own Worst Enemy: Conspiracy Theory."

Street Films describes "The Art of Self-Defense" as-
"A
dark comedy set in the world of karate. The film centers on Casey
(Jesse Eisenberg), who is attacked at random on the street and
enlists in a local dojo led by a charismatic and mysterious Sensei
(Alessandro Nivola), in an effort to learn how to defend himself.
What he uncovers is a sinister world of fraternity, violence and
hypermasculinity and a woman (Imogen Poots) fighting for her place in
it. Casey undertakes a journey, both frightening and darkly funny,
that will place him squarely in the sights of his enigmatic new
mentor."
Here
is the teaser for "The Art of Self-Defense" enjoy.
"The
Art of Self-Defense" stars Jesse Eisenberg ("The Social
Network," "Zombieland," "Batman vs. Superman:
Dawn of Justice," and "The Double"), Alessandro Nivola
("Face/Off," "Jurassic Park III," and "American
Hustle"), Imogen Poots ("Green Room," "28 Weeks
Later," and "A Long Way Down"), Phillip Andre Botello
(TV's "Criminal Minds," "Funny People," and
"Pledge"), Steve Terada ("Memoirs of a Geisha,"
"Crank," and "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the
Crystal Skull).
If
you can not make it to SXSW this year, fret not, "The Art of
Self-Defense" is set to hit theaters on June 21st of this
summer. What do all of you out there in cyberspace think of the
trailer? I found it intriguing and hilarious. Also, this is the
epitome of how a teaser should be crafted, giving the audience just
enough to have them hooked. At least that's my opinion on the teaser
for "The Art of Self-Defense."
Stay
Strong, Live Good, Love Movies!
