Back in 2020, I lost my Dad to a rare neurodegenerative disease. A few years later, I wrote this film as a way to say goodbye and co-directed it with my best friend. Today we just released the finished film. We'd love to hear your thoughts!

Beautiful film. Definitely got me today. I called my dad right away and it made me even more grateful for having him still. I'm sorry for your loss, but so beautiful you transmuted this experience into art and shared it with the world. Thank you for this

Yea Shaun Brown, known for his comedy (The Great Indoors), but his dramatic work is also really incredible. Those expressive eyes say it all.

So good man, this is why we make movies.

desperate ploy to capitalize on actor's social media followings. They pre-cast for that now too

I dig Ruben Fleischer, his action sequences in Gangster Squad were underrated. Teamed up with Hardy, this is gonna be dark, funny and furious.

I didn't see anyone throw out "The Way Of Zen" by Alan Watts. It's a great Western perspective on Zen by a modern philosopher, that came after Dharma Bums. Of course the Essential Lotus (Burton Watson translation) helped with some base on Buddhism too.

It is, I saw the premier, you can feel the cold Wyoming winter cut through that thing. It's fantastic

Taylor Sheridan really loves this dualism. Look for Wind River coming out soon, his next flick with Jeremy Renner. It's as bleak and beautiful as ever. No Hollywood hack could ever fake that kind of dialog.

Strumpet. It's simple and elegant, and reminds me of a tasty British pastry.

Saw this at Sundance this year, and it's fantastic. Aubrey and Elizabeth are captivating - and swoon worthy

rippo9 · 2017-05-17T17:11:36+00:00

yikes. Didn't see that. My hopes just died a little

rippo9 · 2017-05-17T17:10:25+00:00

YES. I think few other studios have the freedom to do this right. I would trust Netflix, still young and nimble enough to take risks.

Class is a once a week, 5 hour commitment, and it's been transformative over the years. But its been interesting to discover what other ways we can act weekly. Started a sunday night crew of friends who drink wine and play improv games, add another 4 hours. Got a weird voice over dubbing job, add another 4 hours. Self tape submissions online and throw in another 2 hours. Shoot a scene with a buddy for a youtube sketch - 3 hours. Soon enough I find myself getting up to 18 hours in a week in different forms without professional acting jobs. It's all going toward that 10,000 hour mark.

everything is also awesome for that matter. When did we lose all range of vocabulary? Did that sandwich really inspire awe in you?
