Waves Director Trey Edward Shults Talks Personal Storytelling and Filmmaking in Florida
If you've seen director Trey Edward Shults' first two features Krisha and It Comes at Night you might have certain expectations for his latest feature, Waves. "Florida, in a sense, felt incredibly liberating and so exciting, especially after doing two movies that were so contained," Shults tells New Times. Love is also a big theme in the movie: the highs and lows of it and everything in between, along with parental love, lovers' love, and my love for Florida. Shults' first cut of Waves was three and a half hours, more than an hour longer than its theatrical release. The director discovered he couldn't find the room to keep every moment he originally intended to work into the film.
