Acting class. It is a time for learning and discovery. However, when Joanna is tabbed to play out the orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally, the supportive class suddenly becomes one of awkward embarrassment.
Directed by Justin Nowell, Acting for the Camera covers a simplistic, yet unflattering topic. However, with a heavy amount of humor and situational awkwardness, Nowell and his brother, writer Thomas, are able to create a fifteen minute 'scene' that will have you watching over your shoulder, in fear for who might catch you in the moment.
Starring Joe Urla, Mallory June and Eugene Barnes, the short encompasses fifteen minutes of an acting class. Fifteen minutes where secrets are revealed, emotions are portrayed and orgasms are faked. The acting is decent, though not spectacular, requiring that the story be truly fascinating. The laughs and stillness combine to form a pristine mixture of emotions, creating an addicting short for all to sit back and enjoy!
