Marin Hinkle and Simone Faoro at TIFF 2024 for The Yellow
The Big Picture Compared to feature-length films, shorts are wildly underappreciated despite being able to inflict a similarly powerful impact. Co-directors Maika Monroe and Simone Faoro create a stunning short film, The Yellow, which is adapted from author Samantha Hunt's short story of the same name, that intimately dissects suburban dread and existential absurdity. The 14-minute film features mesmerizing performances from Marin Hinkle and Haley Joel Osment .
I find that very stressful. Also, sometimes when I cover them, it can be challenging to get them distributed. Then you hear these wonderful things, and then there's no place to access them after the fact. I find that very frustrating. Clearly, I know what you're short is about. Our viewers might not know about it just yet. Would one of you mind giving a brief synopsis of The Yellow?
FAORO: For Susanne's character that Marin plays, we kept essentially her little bit exactly the same. I felt like it was really beautiful and impactful, and I didn't want to touch her character. I thought she was perfect as she was. But I felt like Roy, who was played by Haley Joel Osment, could be a little bit updated for the time. The original short story is about a little less than 10 years old. So, Samantha and I were talking, and we felt like we could make him lonelier.
