@alexritman See All“Being a film producer is like childbirth. You really have to forget the pain or else you wouldn’t keep doing it.”
So claimed Christine Vachon, speaking at the Variety Lounge at Edinburgh International Film Festival, where the prolific indie film icon gave a brief insight into the pain — but also joy — of producing. It’s something she’s famously been doing for more than three decades and with a growing host of directors, including Todd Haynes, John Cameron Mitchell, Rose Troche and Celine Song, to name just a small few. Indeed, Killer Films, the company she co-founded with Pamela Koffler, last year celebrated its 30th anniversary.
