“Limo Ride is the greatest bar story ever told. It starts at the Flora-Bama on New Year’s Eve. I was making films and documentary shorts and Noell Broughton had the idea for a movie. I hear that a lot, but I try to keep an open mind because sometimes it works. Then I started hearing the stories from several people and realized they were all talking about the same night.  That was crazy. I met more of the guys involved and all of them are characters and great southern storytellers. It follows the perfect three-act structure with punchlines throughout. Mark Twain had an essay about southern storytelling and they do this naturally every day. I am a writer and can’t write as well as these guys tell a story at a bar.  I never wanted to stop and do talking head interviews because it is boring for the story and there is too much cocaine involved and you don’t want to stop and hit the breaks. The whole thing is narrated by them. It is their storytelling and it is a feature-length recreation. It looks like a feature film, but it is a documentary. It took me six years to make this movie and it is now coming to an end. Last night Marcus, my co-director and I gave each other a video high five because it came out on Amazon, iTunes and Vimeo and that was the last step. There was no popping of champagne, but there have been little moments that I didn’t expect that made it all worth it, when it was listed on Fandango and you could see it in a movie theater, or the first time I picked up the DVD. A film of mine is listed where I look for films. We have done over a year of festivals. It has played London, Paris, and the U.S.”
