  • Miguel Arteta on Learning How to Run a Movie Set
    September 15, 2017 - Miguel Arteta is a Puerto Rican film and television director best known for his films Chuck & Buck, The Good Girl, and most recently, Beatriz at Dinner. His next film is the experimental comedy Duck Butter, starring Alia Shawkat. Here Arteta recounts the practical education he received on movie sets working with the likes of Sidney Lumet, Sydney Pollack, and Jonathan Demme. "His curiosity and the way he was just actively responding, like letting himself respond in a joyful way to people and to situations, was incredible," says Arteta of Demme. "He was directing, not controlling. He was responding. If you control it then it's going to be a boring movie. You have to respond so that you feel there's life beyond the frame. The audience feels like they're coming on an exploration with you." As told to Charlie Sextro, 3025 words. Tags: Film, Process, Collaboration, Beginnings, Education. Miguel Arteta on learning how to run a movie set Did you have much experience on set before you started directing? I did. First of all, I worked on student films when I was at university, but when I moved to New York, my friend hooked me up to be a location scout for Sidney Lumet on two of his films, Q&A and Family Business. I didn’t know New York. I had to lie because they were shooting in Spanish Harlem for Q&A and I said, “Yeah, definitely. I’m Puerto Rican, I know.” My job was to drive the van to meet Timothy Hutton, star of Q&A, and Sidney at his house in the Upper East Side.

  • Cedar Rapids Cedar Rapids, Iowa, As a Daring, Hip, Urban
    Cedar Rapids Cedar Rapids, Iowa, as a daring, hip, urban metropolis ready to deflower the mind and body of the innocent? Well, it is for an insurance salesman from the sticks who has never been anywhere. That is the core joke in the aptly named “Cedar Rapids,” a sweet and likable comedy (now in theaters) which could be subtitled “The Nerd’s Progress.” The salesman, a super-cosseted bachelor named Tim Lippe (Ed Helms), has never known anything outside of his small (fictional) town of Brown Valley, Wisconsin— though he has evolved enough to have a surprising affair with his middle school teacher, the flamboyant Ms. Vanderhei (Sigourney Weaver), who still calls him “Timmy.” Helms is a natural for this character, having rung a number of changes on it already as the naïf Andy he portrays in TV’s “The Office.” Through a fluke, he gets to represent his company, Brown Star Insurance, at the annual regional insurance agents’ conference in sophisticated Cedar Rapids. Tim is all a twitter (and not in a web way) with attending—he’s never even been on a plane before! Everything at the fabulous conference hotel is new—and exciting or threatening—to him: the young hooker outside the entrance, the really spiffy lobby, a clerk claiming his credit card, his grandiose hotel room, and, especially, his roomies for the duration of the conference, the gentlemanly Ronald Wilkes (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.), the first black he has ever met, and the tyro salesman and party animal Dean Ziegler. While Ronald is a solid sort, people have warned Tim about the noisome, vulgar Dean, just the sort to get poor benighted Tim in trouble.

    The Premieres program showcases some of the most highly anticipated films of the coming year. Catch world premieres and the latest work from established directors at the Sundance Film Festival before they create a splash at local theatres. Cedar Rapids DIRECTOR: Miguel Arteta SCREENWRITER: Phil Johnston U.S.A., 2010, 86 min., color Miguel Arteta returns to the Sundance Film Festival with a comedy about a group of Premieres insurance salesmen who use the opportunity PRESENTED BY ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY to attend an annual convention in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, as a way to escape their doleful existence . like Vegas but with corn. Tim Lippe has been living in a small town his whole life and gets a rude awakening when he arrives in the “giant” metropolis of Cedar Rapids. However, his boyish charm and innocence eventually win over his fellow conventioneers, but he becomes disheartened when he uncovers corporate corruption. When it seems his life—and chances to succeed—are completely topsy-turvy, he finds his own unjaded way to turn things around. Cedar Rapids deftly straddles that line between laughing at and with its subjects thanks to Arteta’s skilled direction and Ed Helms’s hilarious, yet thoughtful, performance. John C. Reilly, Anne Heche, and Isiah Whitlock Jr. play off Helms perfectly to fashion characters that are eccentric, yet honest. Filled with quotable dialogue and unforgettable scenes, Cedar Rapids achieves the impossible: it makes insurance fun.—T.G. Pr: Jim Burke, Alexander Payne, Jim Taylor Principal Cast: Ed Helms, John C.
