"Napoleon Dynamite" Director Jared Hess!
Making Movies is HARD!!!: The Struggles of Indie Filmmaking - A podcast by Liz Manashil & Alrik Bursell
We can hardly believe it, one hundred episodes. We knew we needed a big fish for this one and we got one: Jared Hess! Jared Hess is the director of Napolean Dynamite, Nacho Libre and many others. He's a working writer and a director, spending most of his time on TV and films. But the reason we wanted to talk to him was because he lived the dream we all have: making it into Sundance with our first film, winning a bunch of awards and getting whisked off to Hollywood to start a career.
