Script/2/Screen: The BOSSG Podcast

Today on Script/2/Screen Kenyatta, Mark, Derek and I discuss Regina King’s strong directing debut 'One Night in Miami…'! Based on true events and Kemp Powers' stage play the movie depicts one February night in 1964 when four African-American icons in Malcolm X, Jim Brown, Sam Cooke, and Muhammed Ali then Cassius Clay met to discuss their careers and perspectives on one another’s cultural impact to this point. A clash of personalities ensues that provide engaging insights into the sociopolitical issues of their time that echo all the way to today.

Welcome to a new Podcast segment 'On/Set' where we interview filmmakers to let us in on their knowledge, methods, and their process. It was a pleasure having LA filmmaker and good friend Nicholas Manting-Brewer and his Director of Photography Feixue Tang come in to talk with me about their short Documentary Lumpkin GA. Traveling to this small GA town the filmmakers focus on the for-profit Stewart detention facility whose contract with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) benefits the small GA town of Lumpkin via tax incentives. Through candid interviews with residents, county officials, and former inmates a complete story of how bureaucratic systems and the people they target and benefit is revealed. You can stream the film on Kanopy.com or contact Standard Deviation Productions using the links below on how to watch it.

In this episode, the Script/2/Screen team is feeling very guilty in the best way possible talking about Guilty Pleasure Movies! Kenyatta, Mark, Jeffrey, and Derek discuss movies that are so bad that you have to admire them and ask just what were the filmmakers thinking when making these. We go through several categories of these movies including bad early comic book adaptations, 80s and 90s straight to home viewing releases, and movies that try to be everything and the kitchen sink but failed on all fronts.

With their favorite movies taken care of, Kenyatta, Mark, and Jeff wanted to mention some not-so-great viewings from 2020. Not wanting to dwell too much on the bad given everything but we thought it was worth talking about some of our worst watches from the past year. Sometimes you just have to take the good along with the bad, as that's certainly been the case in the past year. Feel free to leave us a rating or review on Apple Podcasts and other platforms.
