Going the Distance

CONGRATULATIONS to Nanette Burstein, creator of the IFC Docu-Drama FILM SCHOOL that chronicles my 2nd year at NYU film school and has become a time capsule for my classmates.  Nanette is also responsible for the groundbreaking documentary THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE about the life of legendary producer Robert Evans.  Starring Drew Barrymore & Justin Long, GOING THE DISTANCE marks Nanette’s narrative feature film debut.  Her documentary work is consistently engaging and I am looking forward to this one.  I rarely look forward to romantic comedies.
