Interview With "Green Book" Editor, Patrick J. Don Vito May 30, 2018

Show notes

Patrick J. Don Vito is a name in film editing you may not have heard of much but after seeing Peter Farrelly's hit comedy film "Green Book" you will understand that this once assistant editor, now feature length head editor is one to watch out for. With a natural flow, good sense of pacing, economic storytelling and a few other tibits you may not have noticed, Patrick was kind enough to talk to us about his work on Farrelly's film.

Show notes

Richard E. Grant is a character actor who has been acting in Hollywood since his debut performance in 1987 for "Withnail And I." He has also starred in "Spice World," "Gosford Park," "Logan" and now most recently, "Can You Ever Forgive Me?" for which we recently won the New York Film Critics Circle award for Best Supporting Actor and this morning received his first Golden Globe Nomination for Best Supporting Actor. Richard was kind enough only minutes after receiving the news of his nomination to talk to us about his role in Marielle Heller's stupendous drama-comedy, what it was like working with Melissa McCarthy and the awards season so far, his role in the upcoming "Star Wars: Episode IX" and much more.

Interview With "Stan & Ollie" Composer, Rolfe Kent May 21, 2018

Show notes

Rolfe Kent has composed films for Alexander Payne ("Downsizing" & "Sideways") and Jason Reitman ("Thank You For Smoking" & "Up In The Air"). His latest work might be his best yet as he transports us to the the time of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy with "Stan & Ollie." Rolfe was kind enough to sit down with us and talk about his whimsical work on Jon S. Baird's wonderfully delightful film.
