The road to the Red Carpet is never smooth. But now you can follow along, here, from the comfort of your own home, as filmaker/librarian Kacper Jarecki makes his first movie. The film is based on Melville House author Tao Lin’s first novel, Eeeee Eee Eeee.

See Kacper in his freshly rented film studio/apartment! Cheer along as he recruits his co-workers to star! Wonder at his boundless enthusiasm! And laugh, at the pitch perfect movie poster he’s cooked up!

Meanwhile, Tao Lin has also had his novella, Shoplifting From American Apparel (Melville House) optioned by Sangha Films, makers of The Human War, based on the book by Noah Cicero.

Could a Roman Polanski version of Lin’s up-coming novel, Richard Yates, about a love affair with an underaged girl, be far behind?
