Father Of Invention To Premiere At Berlin Film Festival
Wednesday, February 3, 2010 at 6:10PM Hi all just wanted to share a little exciting news. A film that I designed this past summer called Father of Invention will be premiering at this years Berlin Film Festival. It stars two time Academy Award winning actor Kevin Spacey along with a great ensemble cast that includes Heather Graham, new comer Anna Anissimova, Camilla Belle, Johnny Knoxville, Craig Robinson, Virgina Madsen, and John Stamos.
That's all for now I'll be sure to let everyone know when it premieres here in the U.S. If you are in Berlin stop by the festival and check it out. Let me know what you think, I think you'll have as much fun watching it as I did making it!
A description of the movie from the film festivals program below.

Infomercials and wacky inventions have brought Robert Axle incomparable fame, fortune and an ego to go with it. When a glitch in the implementation of one of his inventions leads to a resounding flop the infomercial guru and inventor suddenly finds himself bereft of all he holds dear: his family, his wealth and his status. Sued by his unhappy customers, his empire crumbles and he is sent to prison, a broken man.
After eight years in a remote maximum security prison for nothing less will do for misjudged geniuses such as Robert Axle he feels ready to redeem his name and rebuild his lost empire. At least this is our wrong-footed heros plan. But first of all, this ex-convict has to convince his twenty-year-old daughter and her quirky, protective roommates to let him live with them in their apartment. Robert Axle has a long road ahead; it is a path that only he can conquer.
Trent Cooper already delighted American audiences with his debut film LARRY THE CABLE GUY: HEALTH INSPECTOR. The surprise hit of 2006, the films box office earnings exceeded its production costs almost twenty-fold. Picking up on the style of his recently successful work, Coopers new comedy FATHER OF INVENTION adds another chapter to the story of the American dream.
