Keener is repped by Gersh.

Scriptshadow said this script is not good.
You don’t seem to know how to read if by it says its no good they say “But in the end, this script really works, and I think what sets it apart most is the characters. You just like all these people. You want all these people to succeed. If you have that going for you, the story doesn’t even have to be that great. But the thing with “Song” is that the story kicks ass too. Can’t wait to see what Carney does with this.”
Catherine Keener is a good addition to this cast. It’s coming together….
