Show Notes
Following the release of Sing Sing, another breakout title from last year’s TIFF is finally here, in the form of His Three Daughters! This three-hander, starring Natasha Lyonne, Carrie Coon, and Elizabeth Olsen, is written and directed by Azazel Jacobs. Harrowingly gorgeous and at times lovingly funny, the film offers a subtle depiction of grief, mortality, and familial dynamics.
We were fortunate enough to sit down with Aza and pick his brain about one of the most well-written scripts in recent memory, drawing the absolute best from his three leads (all of whom he wrote the characters specifically for), and the true essence of comic relief.
