Michael Strassner joins Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott to talk about how one little direct message to Jay Duplass is what birthed the their new film The Baltimorons. A beautiful and heartfelt film set in Baltimore tells the personal and funny story of one man’s journey to sobriety on a fateful Christmas Eve. We talked about how difficult it is to get a movie made these days and what it means to Michael to have this film show his hometown, Baltimore.   For more on the film, check out: https://www.ifccenter.com/films/the-baltimorons/  Follow Michael Strassner: https://www.instagram.com/strasshola/  Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.newsweek.com/newsletter/the-culture/  Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott  Subscribe to Newsweek’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/newsweek  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
