You’ve all seen the ads—Show us Your Talent, We’ll Make You a Star. For his feature film debut, Craig Zobel shines a harsh light on the upside—and downside—of looking for shortcuts to fame. Martin (Pat Healey) and Clarence (Kene Holliday) are a production company’s A-team, setting up shop in hotel rooms in large towns and medium-sized cities to audition local musicians for a shot at the gold ring. Both men seem to believe they’re supporting new talent, until problems arise, first small, then even larger. Many of the actors playing auditioning townspeople are actual amateur musicians, and their performances add a touching poignancy.
Atlanta-native Craig Zobel
graduated from the North
Carolina School of the Arts
before working on several films
with David Gordon Green. He
is one of the founding creators
of the cartoon Web site Homestar Runner. The Great World of
Sound is his debut feature.
