The Boss

OK, so everyone knows Bruce Springsteen - 'the Born in the USA', dude. We grew up on that guy. Something happened though a few weeks ago, Dancing in the Dark came on randomly and I actually listened to it. Like REALLY listened to it - lyrics and all. It pretty much leveled me. Ditto for Born in the USA. Never actually read the lyrics until that day, but holy crap, does anyone actually listen to what he's saying? How can politicians play it at their conventions? Such an incredible songwriter and lyricist - he's been on repeat for weeks now. Sounds completely corny, but he really is THE BOSS! Check this out (never mind the Carlton dancing of Ms. Cox, just listen!):

A New Face?!

Incredibly proud and humbled to be on Filmmaker Magazine's annual list of 25 New Faces of Independent Film!
This is a list that I'd always look to every year for interesting filmmakers doing amazing work. Needless to say it's prestigious and means so much to me.

I sometimes find it strange to be recognized as an individual when filmmaking is such a collaborative form - so I thank all of those people that helped me get to this point.
