My brother-in-law Conner Gelwicks passed away on August 2 after a courageous battle with Cholangiocarcinoma. His beautiful son, my nephew Arden, was born the day before. I will always be grateful to have been a part of Conner’s life over the past decade and I will always treasure memories of his warmth, his sense of humor, his kindness, and his bravery. He and my sister Anna were truly soul mates, and shared a love that will continue on forever. Conner’s legacy lives on in Arden and in the hearts of everyone who loves him.
MY IMAGINARY LIFE FOR SOMEONE dir. Ryan McGlade & Molly Wurwand, 2024 United States. 76 mins. In English.
An uncanny tour through a labyrinth of mysteriously linked Los Angeles McMansions circa y2k provides a dreamlike glimpse into the lives of five unique women who live behind the front gates.
Join us at Spectacle this July for the NYC premiere of MY IMAGINARY LIFE FOR SOMEONE directed by Ryan McGlade & Molly Wurwand, who will be in-person for audience Q&As after the July 11 & 12 screenings. A kaleidoscope of fantasy and truth, this film envelops us into an abstracted Los Angeles, a dreamlike labyrinth of mysterious mansions where the residents embody this hyperreal city. One proclaims herself to be the foremost collector of Princess Diana memorabilia in North America. One has meticulously constructed the so-called “house that infinity built.” One listens to a tape of her own voice as she brings a plate of bagel bites out to the pool. One discovers an unexpected guest in her home as she celebrates her husband’s hundredth birthday. One recovers from drastic cosmetic reconstruction while her surgeon attempts to pitch a show to her Hollywood executive husband. These people are the residents of the Los Angeles of our minds, their lives fully realized with documentarian level detail through painstaking months of research, art direction, and curation. Every detail tells a story and there are no accidents in this truthful simulacrum.
