The Fault In Our Stars - Trailer

last year i read a beautiful book called "the fault in our stars." right around the same time, there were murmurs that it would soon be turned into a film. as a movie fan and as a massive fan of this thoughtful and wonderful story, it meant an awful lot to me when i found out they wanted to use a part of my song "sun" (itunes) in the first trailer for the film.

so honored to be a little part of this! and as a fan, i couldn't be happier with how this beautiful story is portrayed on film! huge congrats to all involved! summer can't come soon enough!!

love, ryan - sleeping at last
