50 Ways of Saying Fabulous

Film (Trailer and Excerpts) – 2005

M
Mature
[Director] Stewart Main had a hunch that his leads would be real life, “authentic country kids” with little or no film experience. Main spent several months on the road travelling to schools all over New Zealand auditioning children for the roles. After an extensive search, Main’s initial hunch was proven correct, and as with Keisha Castle-Hughes of Whale Rider fame, none of the lead children have any previous film experience.
– From the 50 Ways of Saying Fabulous press kit
You couldn’t get two more different films than Remedies and 50 Ways, yet Stewart has such a strong visual style himself that there are similarities. Each shot is so cinematic and carefully arranged, and the tone he is creating is very sweet and innocent.
– Producer Michele Fantl on Director Stewart Main's style, Onfilm Magazine, March 2004, page 13
We believe we have a very sweet script that many people will hopefully relate to.
