Tara Thorne - Leaving Journalism for Filmmaking and her movie 'Compulsus,' in theatres October 11th.

Afternoon Pint

In this 'Morning Coffee Edition' of the Afternoon Pint we meet Tara Thorne, a journalist who left her 19 year career at the Coast and Halifax Examiner to become a filmmaker. We get a bunch of details behind her movie Compulsus, that has already done its festival run and will debut in theatres on October 11th.
In this episode Tara reflects on the evolving media landscape & the impact of the internet on journalism. Tara candidly discusses how the pandemic nudged her towards a freelance arts career. It's a testament to resilience, adaptability, and the pursuit of passion in a rapidly changing industry.
We also discuss Tara's upcoming film release Lakeview thats current doing its festival run, the complexities of North American movie ratings. Join us as we raise a glass (or mug) to creativity & future endeavours.
