Exclusive Interview: Theda Hammel & John Early on Stress Positions "I'm talking about queerness in the way that I want to"

Following the short film My Trip to Spain, Theda Hammel and John Early continue their creative collaboration with the deliciously dark and hilarious 2020-set comedy feature Stress Positions, which world premiered at Sundance and was the closing night selection of MOMA’s New Directors/New Films festival. As well as writing and directing, Hammel also serves as editor and composer, and stars as…

What the Buzz?

This year's Sundance is all the rage. So many great films premiering with so many great artists and filmmakers arriving. Some films have even already been picked up by a company! Kneecap, a story about an Irish rap group that was picked up by Sony and The Greatest Night in Pop, will be streaming on Netflix at the end of the month. There are so many films this year at Sundance, so it is going to be a tough choice for which ones are bought by big companies. Out of the one’s I have watched, so far, these ones have been picked up; A Different Man, A24, How to Have Sex, Mubi, In A Violent Nature, IFC Films and Shudder, and Stress Positions, Neon. I’ll for sure be keeping my eye out for any more that are picked up. I really hope that someone picks up the pilots from the Episodic Pilot Showcase as each of those films can turn into a great series. 

There’s been talk, and confirmed sightings, of certain celebrities appearing. So who, exactly, has been at Sundance thus far? First we have Lionel Richie, who showed up for the premiere of The Greatest Night in Pop. We’ve had Lucy Liu and Julia Fox of Steven Soderbergh's Presence. Simone Ashley from 10 Lives. Stress Positions' John Early, Theda Hammel, Qaher Harhash, and John Roberts. Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin from A Real Pain. Saoirse Ronan from The Outrun. And Sebastain Stan and Adam Pearson from A Different Man. Unfortunately I have not run into anyone famous out on the streets yet, but it would be cool if I did.

Since we are done with the opening weekend and many films have had their world premiere here are some highlights. A New Kind of Wilderness, which I am seeing later in the festival, is a “touching” film about a family in Norway who has to deal with and overcome a tragedy. Girls State follows a story about young women and how to navigate the political world. It shows us the difference between men and women and how they have to fight for their rights. There have also been a few movies about AI, which have taken over. The first is Love Machina, a story about bringing your conscious into an AI so that your thoughts and soul can live forever. Eternal You, which I am also seeing later in the festival, is using AI to bring back a loved one to life. I am really excited to see this one as AI is something that has been controversial for a while and I am curious to see this take on it.

While standing in line for shows, I have heard talk of which films people have liked the most. So far I’ve heard Presence by Steven Soderberg, which I agree with, and one I haven’t seen yet but plan to It’s What’s Inside. I’ve also met some cool people such as an independent film critic, a producer from LA, and a few Slamdance cast and directors. I am excited to continue my journey at Sundance.

Keep an eye out for more reviews coming your way!

Sundance 2024 Film Review: Stress Positions ★★★1/2

Theda Hammel returns to Sundance following her 2022 TV pilot My Trip To Spain, with her feature debut as writer-director-composer-editor and star, Stress Positions, playing in the festival’s US Dramatic Competition. With its dry, sometimes uncomfortable tone, that easily shifts from offbeat to satirical to absurd to farcical, this deliciously dark, thought-provoking comedy sees her deliver on the…
