Carl Nargle. While both host painting programs on their local PBS stations and sport a signature afro, the similarities end there as McAdams' directorial feature debut in IFC Films'is a journey of self-discovery and maturity. The film follows Carl as Vermont's #1 public television painter who is convinced he has it all: a signature perm, custom van, and fans hanging on his every stroke… until a younger, better artist steals everything he loves.
I marveled at who this person was and the power he had over all of us. I always thought of him as"This has to be the nicest person in the world" and loved any time we saw him.
The script resonated with him for that reason. If you were a star as a kid, can you evolve beyond that? Another thing for Owen is that his mom is an artist and photographer, and his dad ran a PBS station in Dallas and was the first person to bring 'Monty Python' to the U.S. It's a combination there. You get an artist and a PBS station in there. You also get comedy from his parents. The script resonated with him on many levels because it was a world he'd grown up around.
