THE MAKING OF UNCLE LOUIE: entry 33


When I think back on the days of making Uncle Louie, I flush with pride. Not for me, but for us. I was part of a astonishing little team made of people who devoted their time and their hearts to a zero budget film with little promise for theatrical release. Achieving cooperation and teamwork like this is a high school teacher’s dream come true especially in a classroom of at-risk youth. Listening clearly and working together made it all happen. I mentioned this to Chad Leiker last night that if one single piece was pulled out or missing, the film would have failed, the mosaic rendered incomplete.
