Summary

"Together Together" premiered earlier this year at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival where it garnered strong reviews for its screenplay, performances from Ed Helms, Patti Harrison and sensitive direction from Nikole Beckwith. Nikole was kind enough to spend a few minutes talking with us about the genesis of the project, working with the actors, what the story means to her and more. The film releases tomorrow from Bleecker Street and we highly urge you to check it out if and when you can. Enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
