Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Acclaimed indie filmmaker Jim Cummings is stepping in front of the camera for the crime thrillerThe Last Stop in Yuma County.
Ahead of the movie's release, Screen Rant interviewed Jim Cummings to discuss The Last Stop in Yuma County, his pivot to solely acting for the crime thriller, playing a more "cowardly" character than he's used to, his unique look and why he hated it, and the challenges of indie filmmaking in the current industry.
There's this drought of good filmmaking, and so literally just talking to him, and seeing his plans and overheads, and all the drawings that he had, I could see the movie before signing up as an actor. And from my experience of being a filmmaker, I was able to say, "Oh, this could be very good." I kept my fingers crossed the whole time. But I invested well, and I'm very glad that I did.
Being A Lead Actor In A Movie He Didn't Create Was An Adjustment For Cummings While having full faith in Galluppi's vision for The Last Stop in Yuma County, Cummings did recall some of his adjustment process for leaving the nitty-gritty details of the production to another filmmaker, humorously having found himself biting his tongue to keep from disrupting things.
Building A Camaraderie With Brake & Donahue Was "Very Easy" For Cummings With the movie being largely set in one location, Cummings and the rest of the Last Stop in Yuma County cast spent a lot of time together finding the rhythm of their scenes and their character dynamics.
The whole movie, she's held hostage, and is the most susceptible victim in the diner. And then the way that we shot, we always saved her for last, because we were flipping the world, and then she's usually on this side of the diner, so she had to stay in this kind of frail, downtrodden performance the whole day before we shot with her. But really, she is such a lovely person, it comes across in the movie, she's so wonderful in the film.
