- Matt Miller
As a producer I'm always trying to find a new way of telling a story. The story of How Jen Met Her Husband isn't just a normal telling of boy-meets-girl.
Jennifer Bosworth told me her story in an hour long recorded interview over Coffee one afternoon. I turned the recorded interview over to novelist Stephanie Kuehnert (I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone) (Ballads Of Suburbia) to rewrite as a narrative short story, and then asked Chicago actress Jennifer Reese Wilson to read Kuehnert's short story version of Jennifer Bosworth's interview.
The piece runs 15:56, but four minutes of the end is a song by Chicago singer/song writer Rebecca Rego, who lent her single "The Best Thing You Ever Gave Me" to the score of the narrative piece.
This story is an interpretation of three different women - the song lending a perfect reflection of the story read by the actress, written by the novelist, and lived by the girl who fell in love after hitting bottom.
