Do you know what a showrunner is? I'll tell you. A showunner is the person behind the Movie or Television Show that, whatever his or her title technically is, runs the show. Decisions need to be made, toes need to be stepped on, and bubbles need to be burst. I know - sounds like something that I would do for free, or perhaps as a winter hobby. But brother, it is exhausting, expecially in the world of Indie Film, where there's no money at the end of the day. The last two features had the Silver Fox working as writer, director, producer, and actor. I didn't get into this to work, man, it was mostly for the chicks.
Enter Jay Robert Scott. Mr. Scott has written and is producing "...And the Radio Still Plays", and surprised the Starbucks out of me by asking me to direct. No running for lunch, no negotiating free locations, no aranging for babysitters for other people's kids. Mr. Scott, I thank you, and of course condone your artistic sensibility and decision making capabilites. So, let's knock it out of the park.
