Jay McCarroll in Boston

I’ll be heading up to Boston this week for IFFBoston, where they’ll be screening the doc about Jay McCarroll, Eleven Minutes. I love Jay McCarroll. I wish I could be his friend. For a teaser here’s a snip of an interview with him that had me laughing out loud. They are discussing the reality show So You Think You Can Dance:

Q: I don’t watch that one.
A: Not to be confused with Dancing with the Stars or America’s Dance Crew, or Dance on your Own Grave. That’s the one where you kill yourself and dance on your own grave.

    Hey Cynthia,
    We’re going to be at the festival too. On Monday, April 28 @ 8:30pm – Somerville Theatre. Come say Hi.
    By the way… The film is not autobiographical, as Jay didn’t make it. We made it ABOUT him. All three of us will be at screening. If you’d like to see a trailer, go to http://www.jaymccarrolldocumentary.com
    Best,
    Rob, Michael and Jay
