Jay DiPietro Quote
"I started writing with this theatre group and I wrote this scene with these two characters and it just got a great response. I'm not exactly sure why, but I knew I wanted tell the story of this relationship out of order. I could envision being able to play with the hypocrisies and just finding the true causes of how you end up with a person."indieWIRE: Production Report... (May 15, 2008)
