Tommy O'Haver (born October 24, 1968) is an American film director and screenwriter.
Early life
[edit]O'Haver grew up in Carmel, Indiana, a suburb of Indianapolis.[citation needed] He graduated from Carmel High School and matriculated at Indiana University with a joint degree in Journalism and Comparative Literature.[citation needed]
In the mid-1990s, he attended the MFA Film program at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts.[1]
Career
[edit]Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss, featuring Sean Hayes, was O'Haver's feature film directorial debut. Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss played in competition at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival,[2] and received mostly positive reviews from critics.[3]
His follow-up film, titled Get Over It, featured Kirsten Dunst, Ben Foster, Mila Kunis and Zoe Saldana in a teen comedy about a school theater production; it was released in 2001,[4] and received mixed reviews from critics.[5][6][7][8] O'Haver's third film, Ella Enchanted, starred Anne Hathaway, was released in 2004,[9][10][11] and also received mixed reviews from critics.[12]
His fourth feature film, which was eventually released as a television film, starred Catherine Keener, Elliot Page, and James Franco; the film, titled An American Crime, premiered at Sundance in 2007, and was based on a true story of Gertrude Baniszewski, an Indiana woman charged in 1965 with the murder of Sylvia Likens. The initial reaction at Sundance was mixed,[13] but the film later garnered some critical praise, with Ginia Bellafante of The New York Times called it "one of the best television movies to appear in years".[14]
In June 2013, O'Haver directed the music video "Rollin'" for MiBBs.[15]
On April 2, 2015, the seventh episode of The Late Late Show with James Corden was broadcast from O'Haver's house.[16]
In 2017, O'Haver's fifth film, The Most Hated Woman in America, was released; it starred Melissa Leo as Madalyn Murray O'Hair, the founder of American Atheists. The film had its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 14, 2017.[17][18] It was released on March 24, 2017, by Netflix.[19] It received mostly negative reviews from critics.[20]
