The Extra Credits 'The Line' with Director Ethan Berger
Trey speaks with Ethan Berger, the director of 'The Line,' to discuss his debut feature and the gritty, provocative exploration of fraternity culture that drives the film. Ethan talks about what inspired him to create a movie that serves as an antithesis to the more traditional, comedic depictions of fraternity life seen in popular culture. We dive deep into the lead character Tom (Alex Wolff), exploring the complexity of hypermasculinity and the toxic dynamics that fuel this exclusive culture. Ethan shares insights into the process of bringing these emotionally charged performances to life and explains how he balanced dark humor with the film's more intense, tragic elements. 'The Line' releases wide this week!
