We chat with Emma Tremblay & Jacob Buster, stars of Sundance selection 'Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Feel Kinda Left Out,' and director Jake Van Wagoner about filming in Utah and infusing as much heart into their new teen sci-fi film as possible:
Sci-fi stories may feel a dime a dozen at times, but it's rare to come across one with as much unmitigated joy and heart as Aliens Abducted My Parents and Now I Feel Kinda Left Out. Directed by Jake Van Wagoner from a screenplay by Austin Everett , the funny but tender film just saw its Sundance premiere last week and will have a repeat screening on January 28.
Jake Van Wagoner: Yeah, it is a journey, for sure. I think a part of me just loves comedy. That's my first love, but I also really stories that are super grounded. I like telling stories that could happen in real life. I mean, maybe our parents won't get abducted by aliens, but the heart and the emotion behind that are real.Getting started, I always had the desire to tell stories that had sentiment and heart involved.
Jacob, Calvin is such a complicated individual, because he knows that he can't really trust people yet he never stops trying. People have been letting him down over and over again, yet he tells his story to anyone who will listen. Can you talk about this dichotomy inside of him? Jake Van Wagoner: I am an idiot when it comes to things like that. I know nothing about it, and I'm just as lost as you are. In the edit, I'm like, "I don't know. Let's cut here and cut there." [Laughs] Jacob did a good job. When we shot that scene, Jacob nailed i every single time. I'm like, "What are you even saying? How do you have this memorized?" And he did a really good job of being believable.Also, the original cut is longer.
There's an almost unwanted trio with Evan, who is always getting in the way of your investigative duo. What did Kenneth Cummins bring to the set and to that dynamic for you?
