You think filmmaking is glamorous?  “It’s really hard to do everything at seven degrees,” Director Alessandro Chille said. “You’ve got people operating cameras with metal buttons and gears that are going to freeze their fingers … It was rough. We kept hopping in the car, turning the heat up between takes just so we could keep going.”

At least two of the people involved in “Father Figures” didn’t expect Hollywood palm trees and golden sunshine during the shoot. Chille lives in Auburn and actor Matt Delamater—seen recently in “The Tender Bar” directed by George Clooney—lives in Bridgton.
