David Krumholtz: Comedy, Child Prodigies and Embracing Death

Locarno Meets - A podcast by Locarno Film Festival

Categories:

After a career stretching back to childhood, defining Christmas for a generation of American kids in ‘The Santa Claus’ and shining in the brilliant ‘Adams Family Values’, for a long period as a supporting actor and comedian, American actor David Krumholtz has now moved into the centre of the cinematic frame with ‘Lousy Carter’ - the story of a man with unrealised potential, confronting and embracing death as an excuse to try one last time to achieve something small in his life. We sat down with Krumholtz to talk about how to get out of the way of the role and service the script, feeling comfortable in the characters skin, and setting artistic standards for yourself.
