We were so excited to be part of the big weekend at the 2018 Asbury Park Music and Film Festival!

Co-Founder and Co-President of Sony Pictures Classics Tom Bernard dropped by to talk about the Music and Film Festival and Asbury Park as a whole. Is Asbury the next Cannes for film or the next Nashville for music? Tom thinks so and he’s been an integral part of making that happen. As I said in the interview, I don’t know how they will top this year, but they always seem to do so!
