Some of Our Stallions, a new film Executive Produced by Mike Judge (Office Space, Idiocracy, Beavis and Butthead) opens this Friday July 2nd in select theaters and will be available on VOD platforms.
The film stars Carson Mell and Al Di as Beautiful Bill and Andy, best friends who are newly released from a mandatory stint at a mental hospital. Their inability to conform to society at large results in some frightening acting out. After their therapist fails at advising them on how to reintegrate themselves into society, Bill has an epiphany. What they need, he decides, is romantic love. After a disastrous attempt at wooing “normal women,” they realize they need to meet women who are “genuinely crazy” like themselves. So they post up outside of a mental health facility for women. This is how they meet Bonnie (Olivia Taylor Dudley, “The Magicians“). And though Bonnie and Andy soon fall into a relationship, Bill finds himself playing the part of the third wheel. However, when Bonnie reveals that she is pregnant, Bill sees a chance to get back into her good graces. His ensuing plan to rob a bank and give the proceeds to Bonnie kicks off a years-long series of madcap adventures that challenge not only Bill and Andy’s friendship, but their already tenuous grasp on sanity.
Carson Mell, who is also the writer and director of Some of Our Stallions, Al Di, and Olivia Taylor Dudley sat down with Cherry the Geek TV to discuss the film, balancing comedy with the serious subject of mental illness, and what it is like to work with Mike Judge.
SOME OF OUR STALLIONS opens on July 2nd, 2021 and is also available on VOD platforms.
