FILM

"Keith Wann, a child of deaf adults (CODA) and a well-known comedian among the deaf. He has a number of video footage of his comedian routines and more on Google Video. He was previously involved with some commercials produced by Mösdeux for HOVRS (Hands On Video Relay Service). Keith is quite a talented comedian; I have to say because of his knowledge of the deaf community and the hearing world. He took a 180-degree turn on this role, as it wasn't a role he was accustomed to, more of a dramatic role. Like some well-known comedians, they also are talented at demonstrating different emotions and characteristic traits. For instance, Robin Williams, an extraordinary comedian and he's one of the best dramatic actors today. If Keith Wann continues with taking on different roles, he will be able to achieve a lot more.

"Now, let me talk about the strange character played by Keith Wann. I saw the clip of him doing an interview with Mosdeux a few weeks ago and it sparked my interest. He said that he was always hired/asked to do goofy characters and this was a great escape from that typecast - for sure. I agree - he was creepy, dirty, nutty, and.... creepy. Creepy. Throughout the movie, I'd be kind of feeling good but then would spiral downward into some kind of weird, confused feeling like...... you guessed it..... "tormented, exhausted, stressed, and out of control" dude. Keith Wann's character is perhaps some kind of farmer. A creepy farmer. An apple farmer (I never heard of those? I mean, I know people have to pick apples - but call them an apple farmer?) who Chad Taylor bumps into at the apple orchard. Creepy apple farmer and "tormented, exhausted, stressed, and out of control" dude run around in a cat and mouse game."
