Tuner

Quote and link from the Hollywood Reporter about the film, Tuner, directed by Daniel Roher and its upcoming release May 29 throughout the U.S. Eve coached actors Leo Woodall and Havana Rose Liu on their piano playing scenes.

“Being an independent film with minimal time, how much did you ask of your actors, piano-wise?

A lot. Leo and Havana [Rose Liu] trained multiple times a week, and they worked really hard. They had a piano teacher in Toronto called Eve Egoyan, and she’s a wonderful pianist and educator in Toronto. Havana played piano up until middle school, but hadn’t picked it up in a while. And Leo never had any real experience, so both of them took many, many lessons to be able to land those scenes.”
