Director Josh Greenbaum’s latest documentary, “Will & Harper”, depicts an intimate portrayal of friendship, understanding and America as Will Ferrell and his recently transitioned close friend Harper Steele, former SNL head writer, embark on a cross-country road trip. Josh shares with Tiller the experience of being approached by Will and Harper with the initial film idea (2:30), Josh’s multi-step prep process (6:00), how he ensured the road trip felt authentic (12:30), finding acceptance in the most unexpected places (15:30), the grand epiphanies they realized along the way (20:00), how removing the “comedy” was the key editorial breakthrough (25:00), and the fundamental definition of a director (29:00).
