Show Notes
Dennis is joined via Zoom by Jonathan Wysocki, the writer and director of the 90's-set, coming-of-age movie Dramarama, about a group of high school theater nerds and their last murder mystery/slumber party together before graduation. Jonathan talks about drawing from his own school experience in writing the script, finding the perfect 90's vests for his characters to wear and the delicious naughtiness of teenage skinnydipping. He also talks about his short film A Doll's Eyes about how seeing the movie Jaws as a kid totally did a number on him and how he realized during post-production that his fears were really about his sexuality. Other topics include: his short film Adjust-A-Dream about a gay couple shopping for a mattress, taking part in the Sundance directing lab, how Linda Evans made his dream come true, why his interactions with Gen Z gives him hope for the future and how the movie Poltergeist ruined Stouffer's pizza for him forever. www.dramaramathemovie.com
