Connected as Thomas Woodrow (1700 friends)
"Aunt Louisa" marks Thomas Woodrow's return to writing/directing after multiple outings as an independent producer. Most recently, TRUE ADOLESCENTS (dir. Craig Johnson, starring Mark Duplass and Academy Award-winner Melissa Leo) was released to warm critical reception upon its theatrical run in New York.
His first feature was SHADOWS, a five-country co-production written and directed by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Milcho Manchevksi. SHADOWS premiered at the Venice Film Festival and was the highest-grossing film ever released in its home country, Macedonia.
Woodrow has received significant attention for BASS ACKWARDS, which he distributed commercially simultaneous with its premiere at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, a first in independent film history.
He is the recipient of both the Sundance Producing Fellowship and the IFP/Rotterdam Fellowship. He holds an MFA from NYU’s graduate film program, where he won the Producing Award an unprecedented two years in a row, as well as a BA with Honors from Yale University.
