Demetrius Bady (Creator and Writer):
"I arrived in Los Angeles fresh out of graduate school in 1995 and got my first writing job that same year on Sister, Sister. My friends were all writers and dancers (I love dancers) and struggling actors -- people who existed on the periphery of fame. Most of us were from somewhere else outcasts from "Normal America". We formed a sort of family—dysfunctional yes, but arent all families. Does Your Mama Know is a love letter to those early years in Hollywood. I think that it is beautiful and dark and edgy and quite possibly the hardest thing I have ever written. I kept thinking, as I wrote version after version only to ball them up and start all over again, of John Rechy and City of Night... 'Later I would think of America as one vast City of Night stretching gaudily from Times Square to Hollywood Boulevard--jukebox-winking, rock n-roll moaning: America at night fusing its darkcities into the unmistakable shape of loneliness.' Yeah, Baby, now that's Hollywood."

  • the biggest faswa

    

  • Great work--fantastic trailer

  • @friendlier Thank you I really appreciate your kind words. I spent some time in Chicago myself.  I went to graduate school at Northwestern.

  • I just came upon this surfing around, and at first I was very skeptical. But it really is stunningly made. I also have lived in this type of scene, in Chicago. Watching your film was like re-living the early 90s for me. Most people don't understand, or even know of, this world. You captured it.

  • Wow, very beautiful, evocative and dreamlike.

  • As I said... Love it Chris!! Gonna put it on my Facebook ;)

  • Wow. That turned out to be pretty amazing! Thanks Chris for letting me be a part of the experience.

  • Great Job guys!!

    I can't wait to see the series!!

    Love u and miss u

    Kisses form Rome

  • On second viewing - I see that was Jack Daniels. My mistake! LOLOLOL

  • YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! Oh man - That was powerful and moving! You guys knocked that out of the park! What beautiful art.

    And by the way - was that Eddie slamming that beer in the beginning? If so........... That's my boy!
