One Too Many Mornings - a new comedy.

The other night Anthony, Mike and Myself had a meeting at Casa Bianca Pizza in Eagle Rock. We had a gigantic sausage pizza. Great pizza. BUT, this pizza shop, however, didn’t cut the pizza into normal triangle slices. Instead it just cut the pizza up into random shapes and sizes. RANDOM SLICES!! I guess it was their “thing.” I can’t imagine people say “Let’s go to that awesome pizza shop that cuts up their pizza all crazy-like!”

Some slices were just the center pieces, which are the best part. I wish they were all the center parts. But some were the outside crust parts with just a little bit of cheese and topping, hence the craziness of not doing the normal triangle slice, or even a square slice. I happened to grab an outside trapezoid piece that was mainly crust. The second I picked it up I wanted to throw it. Not throw it away, but just throw it against the wall, or at another pizza. I was really angry. The pizza was so good, but this slice made it seem like the pizza was taunting me. I would have beat it up If I could but that would have been messy, and a bit weird.

I could have easily put that slice back and grabbed another one, but then Anthony or Mike would have gotten that slice and one of them might have really beat it up. Instead I took one for the team and ate that damn slice.

Which brings me to my real (heartfelt) reason for talking about pizza (I hope this makes sense).

Everything that is going on right now could not being going on without the sacrifice from everyone that was involved in the making of the film. From Anthony to Mike to Me to people that came out for just one day or one hour to help us set up a light.

I am truly excited that we got into Sundance, not just because I think we made an amazing film, but because it is a film made by people who love movies. And I hope that the film can reach people that love movies just as much as us.

Thanks to everyone who took one for the team. No thanks to that damn slice of pizza.
