Director Statement
FIRST MEMORY is a micro-budget collaboration between film students, educators and professionals.
The character with the rake is actor Nicholas Pryor (Tom Cruise’s father in RISKY BUSINESS). The crew included Bobby Huber, key grip on BRAVEHEART and LEGENDS OF THE FALL. Bobby mentored a student for whom it was their first day on a film set.
Due to various complications, the two scenes (stuck car, counselor’s office) were filmed more than a year apart.
