I’ll never forget the day that Christina Ortiz, a girl I’d seen but not heard much from approached me to say that she had read and liked Rings very much. She was looking to shoot more and I was certainly looking for someone to shoot Rings. Find your collaborators early.
I wouldn’t call the finding of collaborators my strength navigating the film school trenches, but I would unequivocally regard Christina as one of that films primary strengths. She’s amazing.
And she read Pretend. And she liked it. Except for bits of the mother’s dialogue, she told me over transcendent Tai food at Green Leaves. I can’t disagree. And I’m loving what it feels like to discuss a film I’m making again.
