Open Call for "Las Plantas"

The producers of Beneath Contempt are holding an open casting call for the Emerson College short thesis film Las Plantas. Union and Non-Union welcomed. Sides will be provided.


Interviews will take place on Wednesday, August 26 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., at Emerson College, 150 Boylston Street in Boston.

Latina/Female - Age: 25 - 35
A young woman finishing her medical studies as a nurse, completing her residency.

Due to the long hours spent at her job, she does not have time to foster interpersonal relationships. After her mom sends her a Chia Pet in the mail as "a little friend" she ends up overcompensating for her lack of relationships with a love of plants, transforming her apartment into a jungle of flora.

It is vital that the actress who takes the role has a strong command of Spanish, either a native speaker or completely fluent, and is equally important that she both takes direction well and brings her own ideas to the table as the director looks forward to working closely with the actress to create an emotionally deep, complex, and well rounded character.

Tour Beacon Hill's Famous Filming Locations On Foot with Boston Movie Tours

Moviemakers have long-chosen the streets of Boston as the setting of more than 400 TV shows, motion pictures, and high-budget car-dealership commercials featuring explosions and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Grab today's Groupon for 90 minutes and 1.25 miles of reveling in TV-silverscreen-fantasyland: Boston Movie Tours takes you around Beacon Hill to famous filming locations from famous films starring famous and semi-famous actors.

Walk around the Boston Movie Mile in Beacon Hill (the most filmed part of the city) while listening to an expert guide spout off about gossip, behind-the-scenes secrets, and fascinating trivia from TV shows and movies, including:

  • Good Will Hunting: Visit the park bench where Matt Damon and Robin Williams once sat and acted.
  • Ally McBeal: Check out the building used for exterior shots of Cage, Fish & Associates, the law office where Calista Flockhart once practiced.
  • The Departed: Stand where Matt Damon played rugby in the Oscar-winning movie starring Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, and Reggie Bush fan Anthony Anderson.
  • Blown Away: Discover the street of the runaway car crash starring Jeff Bridges and Tommy Lee Jones.
  • Cheers: Visit the inspiration for America's favorite bar-sitcom starring Ted Danson (Cheers's bar was based off Bull & Finch pub on Beacon Street). Choose either 15% off at the Cheers gift shop or any food item in the restaurant (doesn't include alcohol). If you're feeling hungry, take a stab at the Norm Burger (muenster cheese, mushrooms, onion rings, tomatoes, lettuce, and onions), which has been scientifically proven to be too much for anyone other than George Wendt.

Note: Tours are available Thursdays through Mondays in August, and Saturdays and Sundays in September. Dates subject to change.
