The Garth Method

In 2001, unemployed actor, Garth Petridis was imprisoned for one of the most unusual crimes in Australian history. Desperate for success he kidnapped members of the public and forced them to perform in a bizarre movie intended to make Garth a household name. He kept a video diary of the while process.

Upon his release from jail he convinced filmmaker Gregory Pakis to recreate the story of his life before his crimes and the outrageous stunts he would pull 'method acting' to get 'sexy and tough' to win parts.

Shot on Super 16mm, The Garth Method is a combination of Garth's real video diary and the re-creation of his comic struggle to become an actor that drove him to such a dangerous method of achieving acting fame.
