As a seasoned movie-goer with a soft spot for stories of resilience and determination, I must say that Stacey Maltin’s latest directorial masterpiece, “Queen of Magic,” left me utterly captivated. Having followed her career as an actress, writer, and director, it was a delight to witness her growth and evolution in the industry.
Renowned movie director Stacey Maltin re-enters the realm of magic once more, but with a different role this time – no longer as an assistant. Maltin’s most recent short film titled “Queen of Magic” made its debut at the Lighthouse International Film Festival. In August, it was included in the schedule for the 12th annual Greenpoint Film Festival held in Brooklyn, New York.
Maltin has broadened her horizons within the industry, excelling not only as an actress but also as a writer and director. Her notable work includes the critically acclaimed music-drama film “Triple Threat“, among others. Among various short films, her creation “Queen of Magic” particularly shines, demonstrating Maltin’s growth and progression in her artistic journey.
The story begins by showing a photo from the movie’s Instagram account featuring a younger Addison. In a subsequent shot, we see an adult Addison in 1890 Brooklyn, New York, lying on her bed in a position sideways and displaying a look of disappointment on her face.
The intrigue surrounding filmmaking duo Maltin and Kathy Distefano lies in their ability to showcase versatility in storytelling, as demonstrated by the short film, “Queen of Magic.” This captivating piece, spanning just twelve minutes, carries a simple yet powerful message, expressed through a character speaking in a 1890 Brooklyn accent that’s reminiscent of broken English: “There ain’t no lady magicians.” In essence, “Queen of Magic” is a short film that encourages audiences never to give up on pursuing their dreams.
Nevertheless, “Queen of Magic” is a captivating journey of self-exploration and maturation, beautifully depicted through its production design, costumes, and hairstyles. Moreover, “Queen of Magic” serves as an inspiring model for creating a short film on a minimal budget, with effects that would normally require substantial financial resources.
At the Greenpoint Film Festival on a Saturday, I found myself seated among three fellow filmmakers, discussing our work in the “Queen of Magic” director’s panel. The conversation was enlightening and educational, as we candidly shared our creative journeys and addressed the audience’s curious questions.
