We had the pleasure of meeting Logan & Noah Miller at their book signing event at Rakestraw Books in Danville. 

 The brothers talked about their new book, Either You’re In or You’re In the Way:Two Brothers, Twelve Months, and One Filmmaking Hell-ride to Keep a Promise to Their Father. The inspiring, hilarious, implausible, and touching story of twin brothers accomplishing the impossible — making a feature film (with a cast and crew with 11 Academy Awards and 26 nominations) with no experience, no money and no contacts — and in so doing, creating a better life for themselves.

 When identical twin brothers Logan and Noah Miller’s homeless father died alone in a jail cell, they vowed, come hell or high water, their film, Touching Home, would be made as a dedication to their love for him. Either You’re in or You’re in the Way is the amazing story of how — without a dime to their names nor a single meaningful contact in Hollywood — they managed to write, produce, direct, and act in a feature film alongside four-time Academy Award-nominated actor Ed Harris and fellow nominees Brad Dourif and Robert Forster.

 We thoroughly enjoyed listening to Noah & Logan reading from their book. Much of their life experience growing up is shocking to read. They finish and start each other’s sentences, share everything, and each put the other first. It was not only entertaining but very moving to witness their indescribably tight bond.

 The Miller brothers’ movie, Touching Home, will likely be released next spring and is sure to be a hit. To learn more about the Miller brothers and their unique filmmaking journey, click here.
