Premiering a film at South by Southwest may be a huge accomplishment, but it’s just as nerve-wracking as it is exciting.
“It's like reading your diary out loud for 1,100 people,” Shana Feste, writer and director of “Boundaries,” told Cheddar just before her movie made its debut. "So yes, I am terrified."
Some of Feste’s anxiety might’ve been because the film, starring Oscar nominee Vera Farmiga, is based on a true story.
“Boundaries” follows Farmiga’s character as she drives her estranged, pot-dealing father to her sister’s house after he was kicked out of his retirement home.
Still, Feste said she was excited to showcase her brainchild.
“I am also so proud of the work that [the cast] did,” she said. “So that’s what I’m really proud to show off.”
A university for deaf students in Washington, D.C. held a ceremony for two dozen students who over 70 years ago were forced to attend segregated schools and never received their diplomas.
Monday is National Tequila Day. Cheddar News checked in from Toro Loco in downtown Manhattan to take a peek at some of the restaurant's top signature tequila cocktails made by bartender Will Tacuri.
