"'The Still Life' is an excellent example of what a very talented young filmmaker can do with a wonderful idea. Blessed with a great cast, Miller's film is an extraordinary journey into places in our hearts we all ultimately want to see, confront, and overcome. This story is something that simply can't be ignored."

Joel,
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for the presentation on filmmaking and your film that you gave to my film classes. I especially enjoyed the Q&A session, students have told me they got a fresh perspective on the film industry from your frank answers.

Once again, thanks for the chance to bring real experiences to students, no amount of lecturing can match hearing the information from someone else who has experienced it.

If you are ever in the area again, I would welcome opportunity to have you back, please stay in touch.

"I just wanted to tell you that I saw your film this evening in Erie, PA. and I thought it was really fantastic. I drove 2 and 1/2 hours from Ohio to get a look at it with two friends and we were not dissapointed.

I really loved the color that literally dripped from each scene. Was there a specific meaning behind the colors you used? I felt like there was a connection between them and what was going on in the film.

Anyway , thanks again for sharing this with all of us. I hope that many more people will get a chance to experience your amazing vision."
