Interview: Singer/songwriter Tony Castrati on “3 Films That Have Impacted Your Adult Life”

by Stuart Wright

Join screenwriter Stuart Wright as he dives into movies that changed your life with singer/songwriter for the band Crippling Alcoholism, Tony Castrati, in this engaging episode of 3 Films That Have Impacted Everything In Your Adult Life. Explore There Will Be Blood’s impact, Irreversible analysis, and The Lighthouse’s influence on his personal growth and cinema’s transformative power. Tony Castrati also discusses how he and the band wrote Crippling Alcoholism’s 3rd album, Camgirl.

  • There Will Be Blood – Tony Castrati describes how he was 14 when he saw this movie. He remembers how, as a kid, he loved movies. He never thought movies could be bad. The nature of it being a movie meant it was awesome.
  • Irreversible – Tony Castrati shares how he watched Irreversible when he was 16 years old. How the vengeful act at the start seems so mindlessly violent and you’re not on the protagonist’s side, but as the film goes back through time, you find out why in the world of the film, he would kill someone.
  • The Lighthouse – Tony Castrati talks about how watching The Lighthouse with his wife. It’s one of their favourites. Which is funny as it’s about two people living with each other and going insane, which is not indicative of his marriage.
