Paul Downs Colaizzo’s Brittany Runs a Marathon | 2019 Sundance Film Festival

Rocket boosted out of obscurity with his audience-pleaser (U.S. Dramatic Audience Award Winner) debut, when we shed all the pounds, playwright Paul Downs Colaizzo‘s Brittany Runs a Marathon is disguised as a motivational and inspirational comedy but is a love thee self affirmation and race relations at the core with actress Jillian Bell using a broad range of comedic funnybone type skillset. We were at one of the hyped post world preem screenings.
