I enjoyed chatting with writer/director Wes Anderson. He created a perfect film that speaks volume about love and isolation. .Moonrise Kingdom. is the first feature film of the year that receives my perfect score of 4 out of 4! We all can learn a great deal from the love story between Sam and Suzy.
In this interview, we talked about:
*** His inspiration behind .Moonrise Kingdom.
*** The love and isolation aspects of the movie
*** The juxtaposition between blooming love and desolate love
*** Working with the child actors
*** The film.s love story meets war movie by way of disaster film

Sam Hoffman, the director of Jetpack Media’s (a online video production company formed by GreeneStreet Films) Old Jews Telling Jokes, has come up with something special. There are no gimmicks. No hidden punchlines to draw you in. It’s exactly what the title says it is: old Jews telling jokes. And it’s awesome. Here’s Hoffman with the premise: My dad can tell a story. But he’d prefer to tell a joke. Storytelling is a Jewish tradition. You’ve probably seen Fiddler on the Roof. Whenever they ask the Rabbi a question, he tugs thoughtfully on his beard and says “let me tell you a story.” Then they sing. Jokes are like stories, but shorter and funnier. Old jokes tend to have a stigma, but they only last if they’re good. Some of the best ones provide a window to the culture of a bygone era.

NEW YORK -- GreeneStreet Films is financing writer-director Michael Ian Black's feature debut, the Jason Biggs starrer The Pleasure of Your Company, the company said Monday. Jamie Gordon and Courtney Potts of Fugitive Films and Sam Hoffman are producing the project with GreeneStreet for a little less than $7 million. The seven-week shoot is scheduled to begin in and around New York next month, with the company planning to take advantage of city and state tax incentives to save about 10% in budget costs. Biggs co-stars with Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers) as an unlucky-in-love pessimist who's goaded into proposing to his waitress (Fisher) on a dare, leading to romance and comedy. The project came to GreeneStreet president John Penotti about two years ago but was delayed by Black's acting work on NBC's Ed and the latest in his longtime collaborations with Comedy Central, Stella.
