Stories with Cindy Pierce

This documentary was the result of a ten-week documentary film class by a group of Dartmouth students.  The result was a first-rate, polished, and engaging film about local comedienne/speaker Cindy Pierce.  The 23-minute documentary featured clips from shows in Middlebury, Tupelo, Lebanon Opera House, and interview with Cindy and her family (“she’s not that funny” was a classic line).

Cindy, her family, and her entourage were at the 6:30 show, and Cindy answered questions with the group of students involved in the production.

They whittled 20 hours of footage to the final 20 odd minutes after many hours in their editing studios.  It seemed like top of the line equipment and strong faculty support – this is why you go to Dartmouth, after all.
