Opens Up About
The Summer I Turned
Pretty Film
“I try to go into everything with the notion that we are doing it for ourselves. Because I think if you go into a job trying to service somebody else, you’re doing a disservice to the project and the characters and the story… I hope people like it, but I think that we just buckled down and got it done, and I’m grateful for all the things that it’s brought to all of us and the people involved.”
