I’ve been working with @graingerhines and Shelley Reid on a film script, Last Dollar, that I will direct this Spring. Shelley wrote the original script. We have been meticulously polishing for a year and a half. Each day brings a new revelation in a character. I read a quote recently about the actors in the film ‘Tár’. “ The film’s acting ensemble worked with Field on the backstories of their characters’ relationships so there would be a textured, lived-in feeling to them.” The old fashioned word for it was study. Thunderbird Pictures will produce @allen.gilmer @rikirushing @tiiuloigu . . . . . #study #actor #director #williamshockley #filmmaking
