The motion picture known as PUSH finally releases today on
@shudder and
@amcplus !
This particular film has undergone a nearly 3-year journey from production to post and I’m so glad that the world can finally see it.
It’s always an honor to be trusted with a director’s raw material, and I’m incredibly grateful to
@jdpowell1920 &
@daviddaniel_94 for continuing to put their faith in me ever since they took a chance on hiring me to cut their first feature (and mine) back in 2019.
