What is more ’90s than taking over a Snack Shack at the local pool?
Or somebody’s older brother would give us a ride.
We could go right into the fermenter supply store and buy that and buy the tubs.
And we had a big tome, because it’s pre-internet.
So we have this big manual on how to brew different pilsners and ales and lagers.
And we’re doing it while his parents are at work.
And we’re getting the bottles and capping it ourselves and all of that.
There’s fact, there’s fiction, they’re blended together. "
But I think everyone can relate to meeting someone on vacation and having a crush on them.
And then you have to go home.
That’s more where her story comes from."
I wanted to honor that in this film.

So that was, I think, a lot of that came from him and his writing style."
Leading the movie are Conor Sherry and Gabriel LaBelle as 14-year-olds A.J.
You know, A.J.
The friendship between A.J.
What you see in the movies is what we would do on our days off.
We were a five-minute walk from the pool from our hotel.
And yeah, I think that really helped.
I learned a lot about how to manage your energy when you’re working that much.
Just taking as much of what did or didn’t work for me.
I think those were the main things."
Snack Shackhits theaters nationwide on March 15.
