Alex Wolff (natandalex) talked to us about his first feature film TheCatAndTheMoon which he wrote, directed, and starred in
has lived with Nick for a long time. Seven years at least. That's a third of his young life. At 21 years old, the actor-singer-filmmaker has just released his first feature film,, of which he wrote, directed, and starred in. Nick is the project's weary protagonist, a teenage boy struggling with his own feelings and carrying the burden of a dead father and an addict mother.
Nick is angry. He's a ticking time bomb. But he isn't all rage and untapped emotion; he's sensitive and funny, charmingly so. It's easy to see why Eliza is so intrigued by him, and why, in return, Nick is so captivated by someone grounded like Eliza — even if she happens to be his friend Seamus's girlfriend. Wolff's young characters are real and raw, sometimes even frustratingly so."I believe in characters not being totally good or totally bad," he said.
Nick makes fast friends with classmates Seamus and Russell . They get high. They drink. They party. They say"bro" earnestly. They're kids who make bad decisions without even thinking — Seamus cheats on Eliza when he gets wasted; Russell says slurs he shouldn't. And Wolff knows you might hate them. He's OK with that."As long as you didn't hate Nick," he clarified.
This is Nick's story, after all. And he, like us, exists in the uncomfortable state of just being. It's not a surprise that Wolff was heavily influenced by the works of the Dardenne brothers. ("
