Utah filmmaker Savannah Ostler has big plans, and her self-made movie 'Twice the Dream' is just the start

Savannah Ostler started working on her first screenplay when she was 14, growing up in Alpine, Utah. Fifteen years later, with a stint in Hollywood in between, she has premiered that movie, “Twice the Dream” — a follow-your-bliss drama that she also directed and starred in — in theaters across Utah and Idaho.

Here, from sltrib.com, is my interview with Ostler, in which she talks about the challenges of making a self-produced local movie, and her goal of being “the female version of Walt Disney.”
