Ronald Krauss On Directing 'Gimme Shelter,' Vanessa Hudgens, Rosario Dawson

Ronald Krauss, an award-winning director known for his films Puppies For Sale (1998) and Amexica (2010), sits down with Uinterview to discuss his latest project starring Vanessa Hudgens in a breakout role as a pregnant teenager fleeing her troubled past to find her father (Brendan Fraser). The movie is based on the remarkable true life stories he found while volunteering in the New Jersey homeless shelter run by Kathleen DiFiore. "The one day I came in to the shelter at 7 p.m. It was like 15 degrees out, and there was a girl standing out front with no jacket on," Krauss told Uinterview. "I said, 'What are you doing out here? Come on inside!' Her name was Darlesha. The girl hugged me so hard she almost knocked me over. She touched me so deeply it sent a jolt to my heart. It made me think over and over that there are a lot of girls like this girl out there that need to know about this place."

Gimme Shelter is now playing in theaters.
