Mega-talented multi-hyphenate Hannah Marks started writing "Banana Split" when she was still a teenager. It was loosely based on her real life. She rewrote it with her writing partner Joey Power as her acting credits piled up in stuff like "The Runaways," "The Amazing Spider-Man," and "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency." Then, after she co-directed her first feature (with Power), "After Everything," she was able to get "Banana Split" made with herself in the staring role, directed by Benjamin Kasulke. In this half hour, she talks about the ups and downs of standing her ground and seeing the dream of making this hilarious and smart teen comedy come true, what directing has taught her about acting, why she refuses to get bitter about this business again, and much more!
