Chelsea Peretti actor

“Miranda July actually went to my high school. Prior to seeing this film, Me and You and Everyone We Know, I had seen her perform live. I thought, wow, she figured out a way to capture her voice but translate it to film. I thought I'd never seen anything like this. The child actors in this were so interesting and human and strange. It was an incredible feat to get such an offbeat voice into a film so clearly.”

“Me and You and Everyone We Know. I had the profound honor and joy of working with Miranda July on the narration for Fire of Love and that all started back with seeing Me and You and Everyone We Know in 2006. I remember I ordered a DVD in a little red envelope from Netflix back in the day. I watched it and was just, I hadn't seen anything like it before. I feel like Miranda crafted such a new cinematic language and a way for exploring relationships.”

“You, Me and Everyone We Know, it captures the loneliness of childhood. Truly like no other book, video, television show, just a masterpiece.”
