JO (Laura Heisler) is having a bad year. She has major writer's block, rather dire caffeine addiction and is deeply mourning the untimely death of her beautiful wife. To top it all off, her biological alarm clock is ringing off the wall. In an attempt to address the latter issue, JO asks her late partner's brother JAMIE (Bryan Dechart) to be her sperm donor. Craziness ensues, in the form of a visit to the fertility clinic's psychologist (Annie Potts), and a love triangle with her two best friends (Raoul Bhaneja and Anna Fitzwater). AS GOOD AS YOU is a serious comedy about trying to grieve the right way, and maybe growing up a bit in the process. Peter Maloney, Karis Campbell, Reena Dutt, Elizabeth Herring, Beth Robbins, and Karen Wexler round out the ensemble.
AS GOOD AS YOU is inspired by the life of the late Beatrice Terry Lopez, and is written by her widow, Screenwriter/Executive Producer, Gretchen M. Michelfeld. Line Producer: Reena Dutt, Director of Photography: Robert C. Webb, Production Designer: Keseh Morgan, Editor/Composer: Trevor M. Carlee, Additional Music: Melineh Kurdian. Directed by Heather de Michele
