Nate & Margaret has been acquired for worldwide distribution this summer by Breaking Glass Pictures! Nate & Margaret is a story about two best friends — a 19-year-old gay film student named Nate and a 52-year-old amateur stand-up comedian named Margaret — who’s friendship gets tested when Nate gets his first boyfriend. If you know us personally, you can instantly point out who’s who in this story. Nate was a film student and a fledgling filmmaker himself by age 19, and he can tell you countless stories of early adventures and poor relationship choices. Justin adores comedy, particularly stand-up comedy, and if you get him going about stand-up he just won’t shut up. Justin’s never tried doing stand-up (much like Margaret, he’s very afraid of bombing) but he wanted desperately to write about someone with the dream of doing stand-up comedy and the guts to actually try it. We also thought watching someone bomb onstage was one of the funniest things we could think of, so we didn’t pass up the opportunity to write it. Nate wanted to write a different take on young gay male dating, where the focus was on romantic love and not just sexual exploration.
