On this episode of The Other Tom Green Show, Tom welcomes Colorado filmmaker Anders Lindwall, whose debut feature Green and Gold blends football, farming, family, and faith into one of the most talked-about indie releases of the year. Anders shares how growing up near the Wisconsin-Michigan border—and living through the rise of Brett Favre and the Packers of the mid-90s—influenced the tone and themes of the film. He explains why Craig T. Nelson was the only person who could play the lead, the remarkable story of how they landed him, and the emotional experience of working with the legendary Emmet Walsh in what would become his final film. Anders walks through the years-long journey to get the movie released, including navigating the SAG and writers’ strikes, partnering with the Packers and Culver’s for a nationwide theatrical run, and ultimately landing on major streaming platforms. He also talks about filmmaking in Colorado, how sports function as a storytelling lens, why music drives the emotional core of a movie, and what projects he’s developing next. A candid, inspiring conversation about creativity, persistence, and the power of community storytelling.
