Official trailer for the Rock Star docu-drama "I am an electric lampshade"

“Age is not the limit you think it is.” Holy Moly Productions has revealed an official trailer for an indie documentary-narrative hybrid creation called I'm an Electric Lampshade , made by an artist named John Clayton Doyle. Gravitas will finally give the film a VOD/digital release in March this year after its first premiere in 2021 at Cinequest. It's a docu-fiction based on the true story of Doug McCorkle - a buttoned-up, mild-mannered career man. John and his team follow Doug as he retires from a successful job in corporate accounting and becomes incredibly one of the boldest and most unlikely artists of the 21st century. Regina McCorkle, Cesar Valentino, Isra Jeron Ysmael and Darnell Bernard also star in this joyful, heartwarming and quirky documentary adventure "that will have you clapping from the couch." It sounds weird and wild, but I can't even tell how real it is - did he actually become a rock star? Or was it just for a gig? Guess we'll have to watch to find out the full story! Take a look.

Here is the new trailer (+ poster) for I'm an Electric Lampshade by John Clayton Doyle, on YouTube:

This unique and mind-bending musical odyssey documentary-narrative hybrid film stars Doug McCorkle, a buttoned-up, mild-mannered corporate accountant. After retiring at 60, Doug is putting his marriage, savings and reputation on the line to pursue his wildest dream. Filmed in the US, Mexico and the Philippines, I'm an Electric Lampshade has been compared to Sean Baker's Tangerine - with much of the cast, including Doug, portraying versions of themselves, bringing a authenticity to film that would have been difficult to fake. I'm an Electric Lampshade is both written and directed by artist/filmmaker John Clayton Doyle, debuting as director with this project after working as a movement/experimental artist before. This was originally shown at the 2021 Cinequest Film Festival a few years ago. Gravitas will finally release I'm an Electric Lampshade direct to VOD starting March 28, 2023. Who's interested?
