HESHER is coming out May 13!  I loved making this movie, and I love how it turned out.  It’s hilarious, but it’s not just funny, it’s smart, it’s sad, it’s hopeful, it’s heartfelt, and it fuckin rocks.  Natalie decided to produce Spencer’s script for a reason, and by the way her character’s nothing like you’ve seen her.  Devin, the protagonist, is a truly talented young actor.  Rainn gave a legit no-joke badass dramatic performance.  And, I’m humbled to say, Metallica themselves liked it so much they gave us their music, they never give their stuff to movies!

Now this really is an “indie” film, meaning it’s being independently released without any huge corporations behind the marketing and advertising and all that jazz.  500 Days of Summer had that “indie” spirit, but it was put out by Fox Searchlight who has tons of resources to spread the word.  HESHER’s just got us.  So pass it around!
