Space Station 76: Director Jack Plotnick would be great company in a major catastrophe. I know directors, and I know that they are not the type to take a technical glitch at their premiere screening lightly. That’s why Jack Plotnick should be voted ‘Most Down-To-Earth’ director, not only for his ’70s-futuristic-suburban-spaceship-mashup Space Station 76, but for the way he handled the snafu at the ZACH Topfer Theater when the projector broke down four minutes into the film. When the screen went black and auditorium lights went up, an audible groan swept the audience. But Plotnick jumped up from his seat near stars Patrick Wilson and Matt Bomer and gleefully bantered, “Wonderful! I already have so many questions!” The mood turned from pissed to playful in a matter of seconds while Plotnick joked about a sequel, took questions from audience members like “Is Patrick Wilson single?” (he held up his adorned ring finger for all to see), and generally kept the pace light while the system rebooted.
