As an actor, Hugo De Sousa had breakout leading roles in “We Used to Know Each Other,” “Mister Limbo,” and “Everything in The End.” I was introduced to his work as an actor/filmmaker, with the celebrated shorts he made in collaboration with Frank Mosley—“The Event” and “Good Condition.” On this episode he talks extensively about the making of those films, and his latest, which might be of particular, cathartic interest to listeners of this podcast, the absurdist short “Je Ne Suis Pas Une Star De Cinéma.” Plus he discusses the importance of feeling “out of balance in front of the camera,” why he likes to absorb challenges on set, how independent cinema is “like robbing a bank,” and much more!
Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.
