My Best Day – Digital Only
“A sweet comedy. I highly recommend this Sundance favorite.” — AfterEllen.com
In the midst of her own lesbian daytime drama, Meagan (the hilarious Ashlie Atkinson from TV’s “Us & Them”) comes to the aid of her friend Karen (Rachel Style) whose search for the father she never knew takes her on a whimsical smalltown summer adventure to meet her gambling addict sister, her bullied little brother, her father’s secret gay lover, and, eventually — her Dad!
This quirky 4th of July ensemble comedy is full of fresh surprises — cinematic, poignant and hilarious — all masterfully woven together by writer-director Erin Greenwell (Big Dreams in Little Hope).
Awards & Press Quotes
“My Best Day is a funny film relatable to all types of audiences that retains the integrity of its lesbian roots from out lesbian writer/director Erin Greenwell. Greenwell’s vision of small town life is right-on, her comedic timing perfect and her depiction of both lesbian and straight characters charmingly – and in a few cases, alarmingly – off-kilter.” — Curve Magazine
“Witty, wacky, multicharacter comedy My Best Day features a rural milieu that’s authentically American: a place where people don’t have health care, run out of gas, get places by walking the train tracks, and don’t even envy each other either.” – Variety
“Writer/director Erin Greenwell confidently juggles the multiple plots, serving up a charming, up-to-the-minute slice of Americana. This is Mayberry 2012, where Opie waxes existential and Aunt Bea has finally come out of the closet. Greenwell’s quirky script and great ensemble performances ensure that My Best Day is both subversive and sunny. Cue the fireworks!” – Sundance Film Festival
