Description

Before La La Land, there was the 2009 musical romance Moonlight Serenade—completed in 2005 and shelved for four years—in which Amy Adams stars as coat check girl and aspiring singer Chloe. We're joined by ShortFest Director of Programming Jesse Knight to talk about the problem with Amy's crisp enunciation, and why this movie's bad lighting is Lynchian. Plus: spoiling the plot of True Blood Season 1, the Harriet Sansom Harris fan club, and the worst time to bring up your mommy issues.
