Sorry, Henry.
Dear friend of Dana,
To be honest, both your friend and henry are whip smart people and they both made murderball together. I should know as I was one of the people on the editing team and had to watch every piece of footage shot for this film!!
murderball was intense… i will look forward to this one.
Disconnect is a GREAT script. Look forward to it.
It would be funny if the characters had screen names that got into fights on message boards and they later found out they were friends in real life.
Henry is a cool guy and great filmmaker. This is exciting news!
Henry Alex Rubin is a brilliant director and i’m excited we get to see inside his mind again !
DISCONNECT is a fantastic script. Andy Stern is a tremendous writer – his work is really amazing.
FINALLY!!! this is a great script and it has taken too long to bring it to the screen.
