New York (July 2007) -- Astrid Brucker is the costume designer on the film, Joshua, to be released by Fox Searchlight Pictures, July 6th. Directed by George Ratliff, the film stars Sam Rockwell and Vera Farmiga as parents of a boy in an exclusive Manhattan school, who develops some scary character traits. Joshua is played by newcomer, Jacob Kogan.
In a positive review by Steve Ramos on Indiewire (January 22, 2007), he singled out Ms. Brucker when describing Joshua as, "...a glossy drama equal in look and technique to any first-class studio production, thanks primarily to cameraman Benoit Debie and costume designer Astrid Brucker."
Her close attention to accessories when developing a character arc has brought Ms. Brucker to design her own collection of jewelry, handbags and scarves under her own label, astridland. See: http://www.astridland.etsy.com
astridland is sold in the following stores: Subdivision, Long Island City; Circa Now and Tahir Boutique, in the East Village and Lower East Side.
Ms. Brucker is represented by the East Coast office of The Gersh Agency. Joshua is her 17th film. See her portfolio at: http://www.Astrid3d.com
