Edward Bass on the Much Awaited Suspense-Drama “Belle”
The team of filmmaking experts in the First Line Entertainment Company, the Edward Bass Film, has now started the pre-production of the documentary drama, “Belle”. Many movie critics are already excited on how Bass is going to produce a movie that will focus on the life story of America’s most notorious female serial killer, Belle Gunness. In an interview with Bass, he admitted that he was much challenged when he was forming the plot, which he collaborated with respected writer Eva Meyer.
For him, doing the movie as a producer, director, and writer at the same time is a great opportunity to showcase his much deeper sense of artistry in filmmaking. He had a lot of fun while he was creating the storyboard of the movie. According to him, he is focused on giving emphasis on the hidden dark side of a serial killer who was also said to sadistically rape and torture her male victims before slaughtering them in a secret room in her farm.
Edward Bass has not yet revealed the official list of the actors for “Belle”. However, it has been widely rumored that among the top choices for the lead role are actresses Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kate Winslet, Renee Zellweger, and Angelina Jolie. Actually, Belle Gunnes was a farm owner who was admired by many men because of her pretty face and charm – factors that the mentioned actresses possess. Gunness had a seductive beauty that her suitors voluntarily accompany her in a secret place where they eventually experience her cruel and demonic acts. Such character has been said to challenge much of the acting prowess of the said candidates. That is why Bass is very careful in the selection process. He does not consider the popularity of the actresses. He rather gives more importance on the capability of the actress to deliver a convincing acting performance for such unusual role.
“Belle” has been scheduled to be released sometime in 2012 so the members of Edward Bass Film have been striving too hard to come up with the utmost production results. Movie viewers have already anticipated that this film will paint the silver screen red, not only because of the excellent acting performances but also because of the bloody scenes based on true horror in the history of America. Aside from the terrifying suspense scenes, this movie will also feature some romantic or drama portions, particularly those that detail Gunness’ failed relationships before she turned into a serial killer.
