An obit to my soon to be dead dog #2 Miriam Von Freedman Troy

by Colette Freedman | Feb 8, 2020 | Writing

by Colette Freedman | Jul 21, 2018 | Acting, Miles Underwater, Writing

Miles Underwater begins and ends in the same place. The writers wrote it. The producers encouraged it. The director actualized it. Miles Underwater takes place in one day. The messages and symbolism in the film will be interpreted for years…but, for now,  it...
