It’s the final #BTLRadioShow of 2020 and we are ending the year with fun!
First up, we’ve got two fantastic prerecorded exclusive interviews for you – writer/director/cinematographer/editor ROBERT RODRIGUEZ and YA YA GOSSELIN & VIVIEN LYRA BLAIR – talking about their new film WE CAN BE HEROES! This is THE family film of the year! And I can think of no better Christmas present from Netflix than premiering this on Christmas Day.
Take a listen as ROBERT RODRIGUEZ talks about the genesis of WE CAN BE HEROES, inclusivity, diversity, imagination, inspiration for characters, scoring, family, and more! Then hear what YA YA GOSSELIN and VIVIEN LYRA BLAIR have to say about their characters, Missy and Guppy, respectively; performing their own stunts, the freedom of creativity that Robert gives them as well as treating them like professionals, the fun of the film (including Vivien having an idea that Robert used – a big deal for a 7 yr old), developing their onscreen relationship and more.
And the fun keeps going with writer/director MICHAEL STASKO who is live talking about his new film BOYS VS GIRLS! It’s those kinder gentler days of 1990. Summer camp. The Battle of the Sexes. Hijinks and fun abound! Listen as Michael talks about the story and script and calling on all of those notes he made over his youth at summer camp to develop BOYS VS GIRLS, casting, the perfect location, cinematography and use of natural light, the music and most notably some perfect (and potentially pricey) hit songs of the day that set the tone for us all.
