Back at Tribeca I started talking to this guy on line for a public screening. We were a good way into the conversation before I found out the guy was Timmy Williams of The Whitest Kids You Know. The conversation continued to the movie and briefly afterward. It was such an amazing talk that I asked if I could send Matt Schulman his way so he could go on Overdue Rentals, Matt's podcast. Tim said yes.
A couple of weeks ago Matt welcomed Tim to his show. The result was an almost two hour talk, nominally about George Romero's KNIGHTRIDERS but it goes all over the place in the best possible way.
If you want to listen to some great film talk go here.
And while you're at it listen to some of the other Overdue Rentals episodes because there are some great talks there.
(For those curious, I am mentioned a couple of times the first time around the 16 minute mark)

If you didn't see the piece about the Indie Awards which I was involved with it can be found here.
I'm mentioning it again as a shout out to my mom, who wanted me to either make movies or write on movies. It's something she would have been proud of.

The plan for November and December is to do Doc NYC, some new releases and a lot of catch up posts - including some of the films I discovered while doing the Indie Awards.

I just shifted posts around and Unseen is now set to go into mid July of 2025

A random note about FLOW, which will only make sense once you see the film, I got into two discussions about the characters in the film and about how there are so few. You have to understand that outside of the small fish, the only animals we see are just the ones we are introduced to. If we see a herd of deer, its the same herd later. The dogs come back. If there are single characters, the cat, the whale, they are the only ones we see. There are no multiples.
That's the only thing I am going to say about what is in the film and what it means.
