My boyfriend supports me in every way: Courteney Cox

“He supports me in every way. He supports me creatively. He really believed in the movie… And not just because he likes me, though I know that helps,” she said.

Cox, 49, debuted the film, her first time as a director, at the Tribeca Film Festival last week. McDaid’s band wrote three songs for the film.

“We get to kiss between takes. Courteney is the most completely confident person I’ve ever met — at everything,” he said.

“She gets music. She gets art. She gets the way a scenegets constructed, the way dialogue works. And she puts it all together in her mind and then explains it to the world and makes movies that make people laugh and cry, squirm and jump,\ all those things,” he added.
