Episode notes
Travel Back to the Filmography with the show dedicated to watching every credited film from an actor’s complete Back catalogue from past debut through to present day in chronological order.
Each episode, I am joined by an esteemed guest to watch and discuss the next entry from the focused Filmography and consider how it ranks amidst their career and whether we can trace any typecasting trends or topic traits or theatrical tics.
Today’s guest is Linklater lover and Ethan Hawke enthusiast, Tony Farina.
Today’s film is Richard Linklater’s based on a true story The Newton Boys from 1998.
We watch. You listen… and, hopefully, watch along too..?
