Episode 202: James Gray (feat. Mitchell Beaupre)
One of my favorite cinephiles on the planet joins me today to talk about a director they were thrilled to discuss. Film writer and podcaster extraordinaire Mitchell Beaupre is a regular at Filmspotting Trivia which is where our paths first crossed and I have been following their work ever since.
We get to know a little more about Mitchell during the intro but mainly sing the praises of most (if not all) of the work of James Gray starting with his debut leading all the way up to AD ASTRA. For the what we watched recently segment, Mitchell brings up Coppola's THE OUTSIDERS and then I review ANONYMOUS CLUB and linked below is my interview with the director of that film Danny Cohen. So grateful to Mitchell for coming on the show and already looking forward to a return appearance in the future. Please be sure to follow their work the way I do too! Stay tuned for two new episodes coming within the next month or so from guest contributor Bill Ackerman!
