Mike Birbiglia Instagram – 11 years ago this week I was part of a movie called “Sleepwalk With Me” that premiered at Sundance Festival. It was based on a real life incident where I jumped through a second story window. When I look back on the shoot it feels so strange that I had this absurd impulse to re-enact this near death trauma from my own life but somehow this seemed right. When we got to the edit I felt like we were in big trouble. It seemed like there was no way to make a comedy out of what we had filmed because it was fundamentally so intense and dramatic and when we showed it to early test audiences there were *very few* laughs. At one point I said to our editor Geoff Richman (who now edits the @benstiller series Severance “what are we going to do?” as in “what are we going to do with this movie that doesn’t work which 150 people have just poured their hearts and souls into?” Geoff was so calm. He had made many films. This was my first. He said “We’ll hand in the film when it’s done.” At a certain point Geoff and my co-director @sethbarrish and producers @iraglass and @jacobjaffke figured out that the reason people weren’t laughing is that they didn’t know the protagonist was okay. Like… *is he dead now?* *Can we laugh?* *Will this be okay?* So during the edit we drove around and filmed monologues of me in the *present* driving in a car and speaking to camera saying “I know” and “I’m the future also” and other indicators that this would all work out in the end. We tested these out with new audiences. And they worked. There was laughter. It was a miracle. We showed it at Sundance and it won an award and was released by IFC and the response to it over the years has been so moving. I can’t thank everyone enough for supporting it. But if you’re an artist reading this or any kind of creator it’s worth remember Geoff’s advice to me when I thought the movie was a complete and total debacle: You don’t have to hand it in until it’s done. ❤️🎥 📸 by Kim Madilinsky and cinematography by Adam Beckman Sundance Film Festival
