On today’s show, producer and talent manager Byron Beane joins in the fun as debbie’s cinematic co-pilot as they welcome special guests, filmmakers Kaitlin Smith and Mora Stephens.
Kaitlin is live at the 15 minute mark to talk about her very special documentary, currently airing on KCET/KCET Link – PARATUS 14:50. This is the untold story of the heroism of the United States Coast Guard in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. On this 10th anniversary week of Katrina, PARATUS 14:50 is timely, topical, chilling and pride-instilling all at the same time.
Then Mora Stephens joins us at the halfway point to talk about ZIPPER. Political intrigue, corruption, sex addiction and Patrick Wilson all in the same film.
Bookending the show, debbie and Byron talk about the action thriller UNSULLIED which marks the writing/directorial debut of former NFL superstar and Tampa Bay Buccaneer, Simeon Rice. AND, you’ll hear from Simeon himself in excerpts of his exclusive interview with debbie, going behind-the-scenes and talking about his passion for filmmaking, working with his cinematographer and actors in putting “meat on the bones” of the film and, for some true levity, bug spray budgeting!
