Paz de la Huerta Making Directorial Debut with Red Shoes-esque Film

Big news for Paz de la Huerta fans: the frequently naked Boardwalk Empire siren and upcoming Nurse 3D lead is currently directing her first film. She told the Observer, "It's my version of The Red Shoes...[It's] about a woman who's unique, and lives in a small village, and is ostracized for being different, for being talented, and then she makes a horrible mistake and because the people in the village are so -- you know -- jealous of her, they don't forgive her...and we are all human, you know. And we all suffer." Preach, Paz, preach. Little else is known about the project, in which de la Huerta also stars. [Observer via Vulture]
