Erin Lee Carr Instagram – #thePerfectWife is now live on Hulu.
My dear friend and sweetie of my life @zeeleo once made me a hat with a message that read “every film is a miracle.” it is so true.
From the looks of my social media, you might think that I/we just crank out one after the other but I promise you each of these films are made with bone-breaking labor, lots of spirited discussions and joy/love/sadness sprinkled throughout. I spent the most of the year developing a project and completing direction on an upcoming con/catfish doc and when I was approached to work on this one — I knew in my heart that @michaelbeachnichols was the right human for the job. He implicitely knows story and how to tell one and also works so hard. Work ethic is what I look for most in a partner and Michael had this in spades.
The project had already been underway for quite some time with the folks at Marwar (see @alliberk and @joseph_v_freed) with Allison spending months if not years with Keith, the man at the center of this story. From then on we added: Rob Ford, @scoresforghosts, cbone6 and @magdagora. Michael knew he wanted to tell this story differently and he definitley did (young doc Kubrick anyone?)
We would be nowhere without our execs at Hulu @belisabal, Beth and @katebust, you make our lives and our jobs so easy. Whenever people ask me what it was like to work with you, I gush about what a group of talented women I found myself connected with. Thank you for the top-shelf notes, kindness and understanding. We only get to make these things because folks like you commision it. Thank also to the INCREDIBLE folk doing PR and Marketing. Truly the unsung heroes of the doc work (see @ornapickens, @cindyynaber et al). And of course I never forget the folks at @frankpublicity aka @sldavidson3 and @clareannedarragh my sweeties!
Big claps to our editors @scoresforghosts and cbone6 (you are SO TALENTED!), our archival Associate Producer: Tiffany Hagger, and my personal fav Carson Garriott. Continued in the comments | Posted on 21/Jun/2024 01:46:18
