‘Zola’ Director Janicza Bravo, Co-Writer Jeremy Harris Inspired By ‘Wizard Of Oz’, Cotton Candy And Emily Dickenson – Contenders New York
The heroine of Zola – the unique, Twitter-chain inspired pic about a hastily arranged raunchy road trip – was drawn in part from The Wizard of Oz, director Janicza Bravo told a panel at Deadline’s New York Contenders event. It’s a about girl who craves adventure, leaves a boring pale life “and is transported into this deeply saturated world, and by the end has made three enemies” (Yes, the end is a twist from the classic.)
