We have all heard the saying, ‘we’ll fix it in post’. Well Catherine Hardwicke is going to teach us how to ‘fix it in prep’.
It’s the central tenet of indie film making, don’t spend a penny you don’t need to spend, and put as much of it on the screen. That begins and ends with preparation.
She may have launched a billion dollar franchise, but Catherine Hardwicke has indies film blood coursing through her veins.
Expect lightbulb moment, stunning visuals and a tour de force presentation from one of Hollywoods biggest and most importantly, still independently spirited directors. Unmissable.
