Joseph Arridy

This 10-minute short film will be shot on and around the Villanova campus on April 12. All travel/food expenses will be covered by our team. The film itself will be for credit.

The three characters that we are looking to cast include:

Joseph Arridy: Physically, Joseph Arridy is a man in his early twenties, but mentally, he is a five year old child. Arridy has never been able to escape his childlike ways of acting and thinking. He even finds joy in playing with toys as an adult.

Despite being framed for murder and ending up on Death Row, Arridy is always enjoying himself and smiling amidst his child like mannerisms. He can’t quite comprehend what the death penalty is, despite the fact that he is about to experience it.
