Matt's Thoughts:

The idea started out as this silent short about this quirky librarian who we follow around for a day, narrated in french. Of course, this all changed when I needed something to shoot for the spring of 2005. Alas the REAL Librarian was born! From there, we auditioned and assembled a terrific cast, including actress Amy Jean Page as our "Librarian" named Henrietta Fink. Shooting went pretty well in my opinion, with a big chunk of it taking place on a weekend in Prescott, AZ. We couldn't seem to find a basement for Henrietta's house, so it ended up being Malcolm's parent's garage dressed with boxes to look like a basement. (like you ever doubted...) Overall i'm very happy with the film, it certainly was the right type of story to put on the screen for spring of '05.
