Documentary filmmaker Daniel Griffith joins the podcast to discuss his extras on the IMPRINT Blu-ray release of "Directing Roland Joffe (1984-92)."  These four films were released in less than a decade and represent an amazingly creative output in a short amount of time.  The films are "The Killing Fields" (1984), "The Mission" (1986), "Fat Man and Little Boy" (1988), and "City of Joy" (1992).  Daniel Griffith's 90-minute documentary titled "Prisoners of Our Own History" is an intimate conversation with Roland Joffe discussing the themes and issues of each of these films. The extras alone make this release an important addition to your collection for fans of Roland Joffe and his films.

We also talk about Daniel Griffith's two-hour documentary for the IMPRINT Blu-ray release in September of "The Beast" (1988), directed by Kevin Reynolds (Fandango, Water World).  A somewhat forgotten film of the 80s about a Russian tank crew fighting in Afghanistan, the film has more resonance today than most people may realize.
