Half the Picture’s guest this episode is Daniel Goldhaber, the filmmaker behind ‘CAM’, ‘How To Blow Up A Pipeline’ and most recently ‘Faces of Death’, a modern update on the notorious 1970’s horror movie that claimed to show real death onscreen, now remade for the age of TikTok, streaming and content moderation.

Daniel joined Billy on the pod to chat about how he and his writing partner Isa Mazzei first came onboard ‘Faces of Death’, the difficulties they faced during production and the casting process that landed them with their stars Barbie Ferreira and Dacre Montgomery as well as Josie Totah and Charli XCX amongst many other great players. He also touched on the fascination of the somewhat self-loathing quality in Scorsese’s filmmaking and why it speaks to him, how the age of content is killing our culture, how much he’d love to make an out and out action movie and why the Wachowski’s ‘Speed Racer’ is an unsung classic. For all this and more, listen on!
