I arrived in Denver Wednesday afternoon, ready to offer some fresh energy to Dave and Kevin who have been burning the midnight oil for a whole week now. So after a download with the whole team over beer and some really delicious fish tacos, Kevin and I head for my first film of the festival, Nail Polish. After the film we look across the aisle to our left and see none other than the real Will Ferrell sitting in the audience. His wife, Viveca Paulin, is one of the producers for Nail Polish. Needless to say, Kevin and I worked up the courage to interview them on the fly, trying hard to keep the focus on Paulin’s film, not Ferrell’s career. He talked about big-budget productions versus small-budget films, and some of his favorite things about Nail Polish, while she talked about the challenges of shooting a film in 28 days with a small crew.

Will Ferrell and Viveca Paulin.
