The Babymoon was one of the terrific indie films playing at Twin Cities Film Fest last year. I had missed seeing it on the big screen, but the lovely Kate Sloate over at Double Entente Films was kind enough to send me a screener link. Well, the film has just been released on Valentine’s Day, so it's …

Indie Film Spotlight: ‘Project Eden Vol.1’ + Interview with lead actor Peter Christian Hansen
This is the first time I'm actually doing a three-part interview posts for a single film, but it's the first time I'm featuring an International production starring a pair of Twin Cities actors! This weekend I posted my interview with Emily Fradenburgh, the female lead of Project Eden Vol. I, so today I'm featuring the male …
Indie Film Spotlight: ‘Project Eden Vol.1’ + Interview with lead actress Emily Fradenburgh
It's always a privilege when I get the chance to chat with indie filmmakers and actors from all over the world.

TCFF Indie Film Spotlight: ‘The Architect’ + Interview with writer/director Jonathan Parker

When a couple sets out to build their dream house, they enlist the services of an uncompromising modernist architect, who proceeds to build HIS dream house instead …
TCFF Indie Film Spotlight: ‘Miles Between Us’ + Interview with lead actor Dariush Moslemi
I love road movies and Miles Between Us is an engaging mix of road trip + inspirational family drama. It's a Minnesota-made production, and most of the scenes shot around the Twin Cities, so it's cool to see a sold-out screening of it on Sunday. It also has a Minnesota crew, including one of TCFF staff members Briana …
TCFF Documentary Spotlight: ‘Word Of Honour: Reclaiming Mandela’s Promise’ + Interview with director Kiersten Dunbar Chace
One of my most anticipated TCFF documentaries is playing today and I can't be more thrilled that I got a chance to connect with the filmmaker to talk about her film. I always love films that immerse me into a world that's far away from where I live, and gives me a chance to learn …
