Joe Swanberg on film's inspiration, women vs. men experience of the film


The director talks about the inspirations for the film - based on the experience of leading man Jake Johnson's own house-hunting experience, working with actors on the largely improvisational script, how his time away from filmmaking is making him more engaged with it and the influence of the late Paul Mazursky, the “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice” filmmaker who passed away just after “Digging for Fire” wrapped shooting:

Oh wow I didn't know he'd passed, I loved Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.
