Actor Ken Leung (Lost) jumped into the director role for Interpretations Film Initiative. His short film Rumble takes you through a journey with a father and daughter on the sights and sounds of the New York subway system. With our busy lives, we don’t always take in everything around us. This is yet another interesting perspective utilizing the same script.

Here’s a statement by Ken Leung about his work:

I was invited to submit a film just as I was leaving Hawaii and returning home to New York. After Lost, the premise of creating a story around four lines without context felt familiar. The idea for a subway story came from a driver in Hawaii, who once declared that, if he ever visited New York, he would never go underground to take the subway. Rumble is an ode to NYC, the MTA, and friends who do things for you just because you ask.
