Michelle Krusiec Instagram – Where is the real Miss Young today? I love playing real life heroes. And when real life heroes are ordinary folks who reach for stars that seem beyond the ordinary, I’m hooked. A Million Miles Away tells that story of the people behind the real life Jose Hernandez who helped him achieve his dreams of becoming an astronaut. Not just Jose himself but the teacher who helped his family understand and the family who listened. It’s a heart enriching, inspiring film (great for holidays). Playing Miss Young from the get-go was a tear jerker for me! I couldn’t say my own lines without falling apart. 🤣 I soaked up the time period and style of the film and loved shooting in Mexico with a wonderful, talented cast and crew! Michael Pena, Rosa Salazar, Julio Cedillo, Veronica Falcon, @juanpimon @sarayublue Bobby Soto. Writer/director @alemarquezabella DP Dariela Deloya. Just to name a few! ✨✨✨
🙏Thank you @the.cinemaholic for this profile of Miss Young. I think there’s one photo of her in Jose Hernandez’s book which the film is based on. Teachers are angels sent to us when we are still finding our way. Giving thanks to the real Miss Young and to the Miss Youngs inside us all who know our secret dreams, ambitions…and push us to 🚀 Stream the film on Amazon.
