Production
The film took eight years to complete. With no budget to speak of, Kim relied on a DIY approach. His no-frills attitude toward production was shaped in part by the Dogme 95 movement. Kim worked on the film while managing a full-time job. Inspiration for I Love You, Apple, I Love You, Orange was drawn from a variety of sources including, Mark Haddon's novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Kristen Kosmas's play The Mayor of Baltimore, and the films The Hole, What Time Is It There?, Alice, The Sweet Hereafter, Punch-Drunk Love, and Brief Encounter. Real foods were used as stop-animated characters. A single ham, playing a major role, was used during the entire year and a half of production. After six months, it became increasingly difficult to physically maneuver and handle the ham for animating purposes due to its awful smell.[4]
Critical reception
The film has received praise from critics. David Schmader of The Stranger called the movie, "a slow, scary, and surprising romance, anchored by a tough, vanity-free performance by Lori Anne Smithey."[5] And critic Sean Kilpatrick lauded it in Hobart, calling the film, "a little poem."[6]
I Love You, Apple, I Love You, Orange won the Bullet Award at the 2013 Columbia Gorge International Film Festival.
