So, alas I am back to need to shoot more footage for my documentary Our Side of Joy. I first shot this film in 2008 and shot another interview with the twins in 2009 and found myself having a hard time putting the film together. I’m still having a hard time and I’ve requested time [...]

In light of my ramble about being the filmmaker I want to be, I have been taking it upon myself to be a more active filmmaker. At 1am the night before Thanks Giving, I made a crazy impulsive decision to drive to Plymouth, MA for the National Day Of Mourning gathering near Plymouth Rock. It [...]
