Bill and Ted Face the Music is Dean Parisot’s most recent film, but not the only notable project in his filmmaking career. He started off his career with an Academy Award for his short film The Appointments of Dennis Jennings. We talk about what it was like winning an award right out of film school, and how he came to direct for films and TV shows like Monk, Good Girls, and Galaxy Quest.
