A much buzzed-about premiere at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Hannah Fidell’s feature debut as a writer and director, A Teacher, details the slipping-knot sanity of a young Texas high school instructor, Diana (Lindsay Burdge), as an illicit affair with one of her students, Eric (Will Brittain), runs its course, from white-hot and secret to its inevitable messy conclusion. I recently had a chance to talk to Fidell and her two stars in person, about the movie’s themes and production, inappropriate crushes, and the film’s as-yet-unrealized viral PR opportunity. The conversation is excerpted over at ShockYa, so click here for the read.
