It’s Never Too Late – How a Day on Set Set Me Free
I’ll admit it. I had given up on film, forever. I was 37, had two toddlers with special needs, found myself living in the middle of Central Pennsylvania and handled mindless data entry for my husband’s family business. My high haired, heavily made-up, mini-skirt wearing days were over. I traded in auditions for doctor’s appointments and pageants for Pampers. I wrote letters to medical assistance instead of writing screen...

I met Egil Pedersen on the way to one of the festival’s after-parties. With his hands stuffed in his jacket’s pockets, the scarf tightly wound around his neck, and his overall quiet disposition, I was initially hesitant to approach the seemingly timid director. Nonetheless, in the bright, fluorescent light of the metro, and later in the dim blue-filtered light of the ÉCU after-party, we discussed his personal history with independent filmmaking in par...

Jon Hastie meets Mark Chapman, fellow sufferer of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
Director: Annie Perkins.
Jon Hastie has Duchenne - a severe form of Muscular Dystrophy.
Prognosis - paralysis, 24 hour ventilation and an early death.
Time is precious. Time is not for wasting.
Jon decides to travel around the UK and Holland visiting a number of amazing Duchenners who have carved out remarkable lives for themselves, despite this most crippling of disabilities.
A Life Worth Living is no ordinary road movie. It's a fun, inspiring, poignant and surprising rock 'n roll journey that takes us into the lives of guys who, against all the odds, show us how valuable life is.
The film bears witness to the fact that life is to be treasured and lived to the full.

They call it the Sundance alchemy…..the strange and rather unknowable process by which films with advanced buzz fall flat and titles that come out of nowhere become the next big indie flings. Such was the case at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, where several of the higher profile films did not get the love from audiences, critics or distributors, and where a few unheralded films walked away with the lion’s share of prizes and, most importantly, distribution contacts that will insure th...

In 2011 he was the voice of Rango, he was Captain Jack Sparrow (again) and he was also a journalist. And, again this year, Johnny Depp has the distinction of being America's Favorite Actor. Next on the list are two actors who haven't actually acted in a movie this past year. Tied for number two are Denzel Washington, who was in the second spot last year, and Clint Eastwood who was number 9 on the list last year.
These are so...
