I am not happy to report this. I have been calling Judy repeatedly to get her to change her mind, but she just won't do it. She didn't get any video of her trip to her old house which technicaly could have been the end fo the documentary on Pam Jenkins. I tried to think of a bunch of different options but I think we all know it would be very difficult to get hold of Pam on the phone or any other types of communication. I don't think Judy will drive me back to her house to get some good drama shots or reinacments of that trip, so that is not likely.
And any good movie needs a good ending. I know I have been releaseing it in parts on the web but the plan was to make a short documentary that could have some really strong film festival presence. However, that is just not possible any more. That is ruined. I came up with a really great idea. I would have Judy do a final on-camera interview to end it. I would ask some hard questions. Knowing Judy, there would probably be some tears which would be really great for the emotional core that I last time mentioned was missing from the joke movie.
But Judy keeps saying no and she has only been over a couple of times in the last week. I don't know what she's been doing, but i made sure she knew she was ruining my movie. She said sorry but I don't know. I almost deleted all the other parts from the previous posts but then I remembered they were pretty compelling after all.
I will have to do something else to get into film festivals like Sundance, and I've get some ideas brewing.
