Despite being paralysed and unable to speak, director Stacy Title is determined to make one final movie. Amy Wallace, from Vulture, follows the Academy Award-nominated director of the successful horror movie "The Bye Bye Man", in her remarkable journey to make one final movie despite a diagnosis of ALS, and having to fight one of the most discriminatory industries in the world: Hollywood. An inspirational listen that shows everything is possible. "Hollywood is no place for quitters. Stacy Title has always known that, long before she and Jonathan moved from New York to Los Angeles to break into the movie business, long before the short film they made was nominated for an Oscar, long before they bought their Mediterranean-style hillside house perched under the HOLLYWOOD sign."
