001 - "Of Fathers & Filmmaking" - Part 1

September 01, 2015

Have you ever noticed how father figures (or the lack thereof) have traditionally played a key role in the history of cinema? It's a common theme you see in the works of Spielberg, P.T. Anderson, Coppola, and even as far back as Capra. But I was fascinated to see how often the topic came up in my own conversations with filmmakers and artists.
In this official premiere episode, we look at the role that fathers play in cinema, and how being open to the vulnerability that comes with sharing those stories will elevate your craft.
