🎬 Spielberg, Scott, Streisand & the Trailers Behind the Legends

This week, we continue our heartfelt tribute to Andy Kuehn, the visionary known as the father of the modern trailer industry. In this episode, we're joined by Greg McClatchy, President of Motor Entertainment and longtime Kaleidoscope editor, along with returning guest Benedict Coulter, co-founder of REBEL and the original rock-star trailer editor.

Together, they revisit their years at Kaleidoscope, the groundbreaking agency Andy Kuehn co-founded. From crafting trailers for The Omen and Top Gun to working with Spielberg, Barbra Streisand, and Tony Scott, this conversation offers a rare glimpse into the formative years of modern trailer-making.

🎧 In this episode:

  • The AJK Foundation and Andy's legacy work in film preservation

  • How Kaleidoscope dominated the trailer industry in the 70s–90s

  • Andy's unique style: part Clark Gable, part Don Draper

  • What it was like working directly with legends like Spielberg and De Palma

  • How Andy gave countless creatives their big break

  • Reflections on Andy's mentorship, leadership, and generosity

đź’¬ "Andy Kuehn wasn't just a boss. He was a mentor, a friend, and a creative force unlike any other."
