  • Pressed with Jeremyʼs Directing Skills, Which He Mentioned to Gordon Pinsent, Who Happens to Be His Father-In-Law
    SEX AFTER KIDS Run Time: 105 min Canadian Distributor: IndieCan Entertainment 271 Glenholme Avenue, Suite #3 Toronto ON M6E 3C9 p. (416) 898-3456 f. (416) 658-9913 e. [email protected] Producer Contacts: Jeremy LaLonde e. [email protected] p. 416-844-6496 Jennifer Liao e. [email protected] SEX AFTER KIDS Production Notes About the Story When writer and director Jeremy LaLonde (The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard) decided he wanted to move forward with his sophomore feature film, he took a rather unconventional approach. He cast the film and then wrote the script. He says, “Itʼs far easier to write when youʼve got a voice of a character in your head, and even easier when you know exactly who is going to play that part.” And, he also adapted the old adage – write what you know. The idea for Sex After Kids was born out of his own experience. At the time, he had a newborn and a three-year-old, as he said, “Itʼs safe to say that I knew enough about this subject to realize it was pretty fertile ground and that there were probably a decent amount of people who would appreciate a comedy about the subject.” Ultimately to Jeremy, the film can mean different things for different people. “For me,” he says, “itʼs about how relationships are hard and then when you throw in uncontrollable elements it can make them impossible – but thatʼs when people grow. Itʼs about how relationships change over time and how some people have a hard time dealing with that fact.” Shannon Beckner, who plays Jules, shares the same sentiment as Jeremy, she commented, “This film is about the entirely new lives many of us unwittingly start when we bring another human being into our old ones.
