We spoke w/ DevotionMovie director JGDillard and Christina Jackson about why you should see the film in a movie theater and what it was like working with Jonathan Majors.

Director J.D. Dillard’s latest feature Devotion is an emotional adaptation of author Adam Makos’ novel recounting the heroic acts of two U.S. Navy fighter pilots during the Korean War. With a screenplay penned by Jake Crane and Jonathan Stewart, Devotion chronicles the partnership and friendship between Ensign Jesse Brown , the Navy’s first Black carrier pilot, and his wingman Lieutenant Tom Hudner , during a time of segregation and societal upheaval.

J.D. DILLARD: Yes. I would love for people to see it in the theater because I think “theatricality” is a term that almost transcends theater. It's actually about experience. And the really incredible benefit of getting to tour this movie a little bit to the festivals is that you actually start to get a sense of what it's like to watch this with your family, to watch this with your friends.

I 100% agree. J.D., I'm always curious about the editing process because that's where film comes together. How did this film possibly change in the editing room in ways you didn't expect? DILLARD: Yeah. That is the funny other side of the coin of the director's cut. Please do not watch my director's cut. It's terrible. I would be horrified if that was released as a special feature because it would be unwieldy. I'm way happier with the theatrical cut than I am the director's cut. So yeah, if you ever see that, run. Do not watch the director's cut.
