Hi, I'm Justin Arnold.

Writer, director, actor & producer of MOTHER FUCKER, a short script I adapted from a feature film I wrote. I've been an actor for quite some time now but I wanted to make a film. I'm influenced by so many great artists but for this project, I'll narrow it down to Sam Shepard's foolish whimsy, Patti Smith's passion & fire, Richard Linklater's romantic side and the charm in humor of any John Prine love song. For the first time, I'm stepping into the director’s chair and producing my very own short super-16mm film. 

Mother Fucker is about asking for what you want to get what you need. Starring actor, writer & comedian Katie Folger. A staple in the Austin, Texas Indi film scene. Whose works center around more nuanced representations of women in media.

Imagine being a young mother. You ask your husband to pick up an item from the grocery store on his way in from work. An item you desperately need and when finally, your husband arrives home. He's absent minded and empty handed. Fed up, you take it upon yourself to go get what you need. Only to be ambushed by the handsome devil next door, who's got no second thoughts in going after the pursuit of his heart’s desire. 

Mother Fucker is my Fool for Love, my before noon to the great Before Sunset trilogy, my shot in the dark at being a Sam-Shepard-Patti-Smith collaboration to just pick up the pen, pick up the camera, press record and put on a show. My film Mother fucker is sure to put a great big O' smile on your face, make you laugh, tear up and charm your pants off.
