Featuring special guests: Eddie Jemison and Nick Fitzhugh.
BEHIND THE LENS wraps its first year with two incredible guests – actor and now writer/director, Eddie Jemison, and producer/director Nick Fitzhugh.
Long established actor on stage and screen, first up is Eddie Jemison who talks with debbie about his directorial debut, KING OF HERRINGS. Solid storytelling and standout performances, most notably by Jemison’s real life and on-screen wife Laura Lamson, are a hallmark of this film as Eddie and debbie talk about his inspiration, his 25-year friendship with his co-stars and the art of directing.
And then we have producer/director/cinematographer/showrunner Nick Fitzhugh live talking about one of the most indelible and powerful television mini-series to come around in a long time – CONFLICT. A six-part miniseries focusing on the roots of human conflict as seen through the eyes of some of the world’s best conflict photographers, CONFLICT embeds itself on your conscience. Nick’s insight into the project, its genesis and its future direction is not to be missed.
And then there’s Tarantino, Quentin Tarantino. Take a listen to some excerpts of what Quentin had to say at the recent press conference for THE HATEFUL EIGHT about his use of Ultra Panavision and shooting in 70mm! (Programming Note: Tune in LIVE to our January 4, 2016 show for more on THE HATEFUL EIGHT when you’ll hear debbie’s exclusive interviews with producer Richard Gladstein and editor Fred Raskin.)
