Brittany Snow Had to Relive Her Experience With Self Harm While Making Her Directorial Debut ‘Parachute’

“UnWrapped” podcast: “It was really hard for me to do, because I was opening myself up for people to realize, ‘Oh, I’ve self-hurt myself in more ways than just telling myself that I suck.’”

Facing past trauma can be a scary thought. But Brittany Snow decided to approach it head-on in writing and directing her first feature film “Parachute.” And yes, it did result in a lot of tears on set.

In the latest episode of the “UnWrapped” podcast, the “John Tucker Must Die” actress opened up about how personal “Parachute” was, detailing her experience with an eating disorder, self harm and codependency. And, according to Snow, the most difficult scenes for her to film featured vulnerable moments of the main character Riley, played by Courtney Eaton.

While Snow said Riley’s eating scenes were the hardest to shoot, it was the scenes of Riley circling her body parts in the mirror that had both actresses crying every time.
