Cinematographer Craig Kief was on vacation when producer Jonathan Buss – a guy he's worked with on a few documentaries – sent him the script for "7 Days in Hell." Kief had no idea what was coming, and by the last page he was nearly in tears from laughing so hard, he recently told Indiewire. "7 Days in Hell" is a mockumentary about the longest tennis match ever at Wimbeldon in 2004. (Lest you think it's real, we Googled it, and the longest match was actually 11 hours long over three days, in 2010.) Written by Murray Miller ("Girls," "American Dad!") and directed by Jake Szymanski who hails from the "Funny or Die" and "SNL" camps, the 42-minute HBO film stars Andy Samberg and Kit Harington ("Game of Thrones") and includes cameos from Lena Dunham, Will Forte, Fred Armisen, Mary Steenburgen, Michael Sheen and Serena Williams.
