My Darling Vivian
My Darling Vivian
Riddlehoover produced, directed, and edited My Darling Vivian, a biographical documentary about Vivian Liberto, the first wife of Johnny Cash. The film premiered at the 2020 South by Southwest Film Festival, presented by Amazon Prime Video, to great acclaim. It was hailed by The Hollywood Reporter and the Los Angeles Times as a "must-see" critics' pick, and Newsweek ranked it among the best films of the year. My Darling Vivian went on to screen at festivals around the world, including Geena Davis' Bentonville Film Festival, where Riddlehoover received the Special Jury Award for Excellence in Editing.
