How to Kill Yourself in One Year #3 "hemingway"

photos from the (wet) Hemingway shoot

Franny seems engrossed in my lengthy game plan

no crew means no photog means sloppy cast/crew pics

a huge chunk of time was spent waiting for it  to stop raining

no really. I got pregnant to play this role...

babies' SECOND crew gig.  now they're talking participation...

yes. that is a sun blocker being used as a bo-bo reflector. what's it to ya?

and then some zany broke out.

and deeeeep thoughts...with hack jandy...

classic directing move...NAILED it.

Grisel laughs. she was the only one NOT rained upon

and then Franny made some kick ass guac.   

my "awesome" shot list...complete with life-like photo realistic story board drawings.

rehearsing...

this chick is so freaking beautiful it makes my heart hurt.

mother nature can oftimes try to produce...

I don't know why y'all are looking at me like that...I don't even HAVE an  umbrella!

the gorgeous and uber talented Franny Civitano as Monica

the results of trying to stage a directing moment

so this is the martini...or would have been if the f**king mic stand wasn't in the shot!

Cast for Hemingway

Jennifer White as the Pregnant Housewife (she actually allowed me to get her pregnant just to make this film...now THAT is dedication to one's craft, folks)

HTKYIOY #1 Veteran, Franny Civitano, as Monica (we can't get enough of her!)

now it's October Country...the third one. the third script.

hemingway

this is an ancient MP script...probably from their first  one pager contest...and one that I've wanted to make for quite (no pun intended) some time.

I've expanded it a wee bit for this incarnation...
