Filmwax TV: Robert Machoian, Will Fritch & Peter Albrechtsen (THE INTEGRITY OF JOSEPH CHAMBERS)

Robert Machoian returns to Filmwax for his 5th visit. He directed a new movie called "The Integrity of Joseph Chambers" which had its world premiere at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival. He's joined in this segment by his composer, Will Fritch, and his sound designer, Peter Albrechtsen, who together has made an unforgettable soundscape for this film. This is the thrust of the conversation we had. Joe (Clayne Crawford) is a family man - a father of two young kids and husband to Tess (Jordana Brewster), living in the country. One morning he wakes up before dawn and decides to go deer hunting by himself - much to Tess’s discontent, who deems it an irresponsible idea, equating it to what eccentric survivalists do. “We need to know how to do this stuff,” Joe tells Tess, feeling a need to prove himself as a man, and rise above his persona as an insurance salesman. WIth that, Joe heads out, borrows a rifle from a neighbor, and drives up a mountain into the woods. The sun rises as Joe roams around the woods - distracted, bored, restless - but Joe’s boredom and restlessness are short-lived. . In the blink of an eye, Joe undergoes an experience that quickly begins to torment him, all alone in the wilderness… Writer/director Robert Machoian ("The Killing of Two Lovers") crafts a distinctively stripped-down and atmospheric drama, deftly employing an eerie tone that pays off effectively in measured increments. Machoian’s narrative, replete with sparse dialogue and lingering dread, compellingly explores the myriad of emotions that the protagonist experiences, all while making the audience an invested observer in this brooding morality tale. —Jose Rodriguez (Tribeca Film Festival) #tribecafilmfestival #theintegrityofjosephchambers #robertmachoian #peteralbrechtsen #williamfritch #filmwaxtv https://tribecafilm.com/films/integrity-of-joseph-chambers-2022 -------------------------------------------- 00:00 - 00:18 - Intro 00:19 - 01:35 - Trailer 01:36 - 45:09 - Interview 45:10 - 45:23 - Outro ------------------------------------------
