Mumblecore Menace Infects Our Nation's Vulnerable Film Students!

Caroline is an NYU film student currently working on her final project. Her movie is called Phantom Vibrations and Caroline refers to it as "a freestyle mumblecore piece." It seems to be mostly about her roommate drinking beer. All shot on expensive, precious 35mm. Roving videographer Alex Goldberg went over to meet the future of independent film/food service.

(Full disclosure: I actually dropped out of NYU's Tisch School of the Performing Arts, where I was studying playwriting and screenwriting until I realized no one paid for the former and, as pictured above, no one thought they needed the latter. If I'd followed my dreams, though, I might be on strike right now. Sigh...)
