b"Jim Cummings joins Giles Alderson (The Dare) and Christian James (Fanged Up) to talk about his debut feature film Thunder Road.\\nJim wrote, directed and starred in the film which was developed from his short film of the same name which won the grand Jury prize in Sundance.\\nHe tells us about his journey from making shorts as a producer to doing it yourself, where the idea for Thunder Road came from and how he ended up the lead in his own short and subsequent feature film.\\nThunder Road is a hilarious tragi-comedy which follows the life of Jim, a police officer on the verge of a mental breakdown following the death of his mother and the breakdown of his marriage.\\xa0Thunder Road is released i the UK on Friday 31st May Having self-funded the film via Kickstarter, it\\u2019s a testament to independent film-making and is a real passion project for Jim. The film also has lots of interesting angles to explore such as how it has had the seal of approval from Bruce Springsteen whose song it is named after, how it deals with topical mental health including the stigma around men being able to show emotion and it\\u2019s comment on the current state of the American police force.\\n\\xa0\\nLinks\\n\\xa0\\nThunder Road trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFSrtVN1i6A\\n\\xa0\\nThunder Road CINEMA LISTINGS http://thunderroadfilm.co.uk/seances\\n\\xa0\\nJim Cummings on Twitter @jimmycthatsme\\n\\xa0\\nLINKS\\n\\xa0\\nOur NEW collaborators and Sponsors - ScreenCraft.org\\n\\xa0\\nSCREENCRAFT - The ScreenCraft team are dedicated to helping connect emerging writers and filmmakers with career opportunities.
