EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
From Oscar-nominated directors Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan (Troublesome Creek), comes a new documentary that's a black-humored cliffhanger of romance, guerilla science and the meaning of time. What would you do if you were 29 and found you may only have a few years to live? So Much So Fast is about the remarkable events set in motion when Stephen Heywood discovers he has ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and his brother Jamie becomes obsessed with finding a cure. Nominated for Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival, So Much So Fast was released theatrically to critical acclaim and was broadcast on networks around the world, including the premier PBS series Frontline. "Triumphant! A story that keeps expanding until it seems to fill the universe. Unforgettable." Four stars - Boston Globe. "A perceptive portrait of an entire family in revolt against fate." - The New York Times. "Director-writers Steven Ascher and Jeanne Jordan have created a beautiful film that unfolds like a thriller. Profound questions sneak up on you almost without you realising it." - Sydney Morning Herald. "Filmed with insight, tenderness and even a little black humour, the aptly titled So Much So Fast is concerned with the intimacy of bad luck', but is truly about love, courage and discovery." - The Telegraph (London)
