I sat down with filmmaker Richard Bakewell to talk about his intriguing new project, Roswell Delirium. A film that blends 80s nostalgia with striking contemporary themes, it draws connections between the Cold War era and the recent pandemic, creating a unique backdrop for a story that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Richard shares insight into his casting process, highlighting the mix of seasoned actors and emerging talent who bring depth to the story. He also discusses some of the emotional and impactful moments on set, particularly the scenes involving characters Ari and Kylee, which carry significant weight and showcase the film’s emotional core.

At its heart, Roswell Delirium is a film about mental health, and Richard hopes that audiences will have an immersive experience that sparks conversation. He emphasizes the importance of open dialogue about male mental health and the broader societal pressures that affect emotional wellbeing.

We also touch on the creative challenges of making a film that balances suspense, nostalgia, and heartfelt storytelling, as well as updates on the film’s release and upcoming screenings.

This conversation offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a filmmaker passionate about combining entertainment, emotion, and social impact.
