“I think I’m really drawn to unlikeable characters because what I think my job is as an actor or as a creator of characters is finding the root of that unlikeability, where somebody’s broken and acting from that...I see my job as finding something in there that keeps you watching.”

    THE UNSPEAKABLE ACT

    DAN SALLITT United States, 2012

    A tender coming-of-age story from Dan Sallitt (Fourteen), The Unspeakable Act lovingly recalls the humanism of Éric Rohmer’s films. Taking on a difficult subject with rare sincerity, Sallitt allows his characters to develop subtly and with warmth. Watch out for Tallie Medel’s mighty portrayal.
