Beth + Jeremy and Steve, directed by Daniel Hill, showcases a unique romantic triangle involving Beth, a woman in her 30s, her husband Steve, and Jeremy, a high school swimmer. Set against the backdrop of Portland, the film highlights compelling character performances and a nuanced script that avoids oversimplification. With roots in improv, Hill, who has spent over a decade developing this project, draws on his extensive background in filmmaking for his debut feature, which premieres at PSU's 5th Avenue Cinema.
It's an accomplished debut, with compelling performances (especially from Ratterman) and a script that refuses to draw easy conclusions about any of its characters.
Improv was my bread and butter, but I was doing film at the same time.
This film has been over a decade in the offing, and it's having a Portland theatrical premiere screening this Friday.
I always wanted to make movies too. I think improv is a really quick way to get on stage and do stuff.
