One of the cool movies on Grapeflix is a musical by Lee Feldman. The musical, entitled Starboy, is showing at the Lee Feldman online theater.
Lee Feldman, pianist, singer
and songwriter (he prefers the term 'dentist') was introduced at a New York
club as this generation's Randy Newman. But Lee's songs also have a style
uniquely their own, reflecting his love of Rock and Roll, Pop and experimental
jazz. Starboy is Lee's animated musical about a sad superhero who lives with
his uncle, a mathematician.
Here's the story of
Starboy: Lee Feldman realized that his home phone number spelled out
(718) Starboy back in the 90's. It took him a few years but he finally
turned it into an animated musical with Joe Campbell. Starboy premiered in 2004
at the Millennium Film Archives. It has since been featured at the
Anthology Film Archives in Manhattan and at clubs and theaters at Williamsburg,
Brooklyn. In 2004, it won the Producer's Award in the 2004 Delaware
Valley Arts Alliance Film Festival. In 2005, it was shown (and performed
with a live cast) at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
The songs in Starboy are singable, kid-friendly, strange, sophisticated
and imbued with heart and mystery.
Starboy is showing on Grapeflix as a stream, rental download, or purchase download.
