Making this film is an ongoing joy. I deeply love these insanely talented people, and am in a perpetual state of awe & gratitude that we get to hang.

There are more incredible folks whose involvement will be announced, in front of and behind the camera.

But for now: game fuckin on.

Infinite ear-worm! When this first came out, I listened to it over and over and over driving from LA to SF and back again. So many holy moments had to this song.

@variety hosted a High Tea celebrating female directors, and it was a joy to be included among my @directorsguild colleagues and co-chairs — including Madam President Emeritus @leslilinka and forever Muse @breedawool. The room was brimming with powerhouses. I love hanging out with women who direct and make shit happen directly. Thanks for the honor, Variety.

@backseatdriversfilm humbly salutes our beloved buddy, David “drum daddy” Wain, for shining his light and making us laugh so hard at our first private screening last night. We appreciate your sick beats and lines that slap.

My first movie was about being afraid of having kids, then I got pregnant while filming. My second was about grief, and then my best friend died during production. At which point, @mintmilana said: how bout we make the next one about an Oscar-winning rockstar who…

That was bouncing around my head when I moved a fancier town. Iwas taking my child’s project to the school science fair- the project that had just kicked my ass. I found myself sizing up the other parents, judging them for doing their kids work for them (or not helping enough- negligence!) and had a moment of realization as I watched my brain become more and more unhinged.

I thought: well, I may not win an Oscar this year, but I can win the shit out of this science fair.

At that moment, my manager @evan_filmtv called. I told him what I was up to, he said: “Science Fair ruined my life too! You HAVE to make a movie about it!”

I set out to make a movie about a town unwinding because of the school science fair, but ended up making one about embracing fear and rediscovering creativity.

It’s a huge honor to finally get to share this film with the world (at our first special screening) & find our audience.

If you’ve ever experienced intrusive thoughts, marveled at the collective unconscious, or pleasured yourself to Pride & Prejudice- then this movie is for you!

Welcome to the world, @backseatdriversfilm
