176: The City Bleeds for Harry Dean Stanton

Movie Meltdown - Episode 176 This week, we are coming to you “Live” from Harry Dean Stanton Fest!! Where we find out why, “It is blood red... like the city is bleeding!” Plus we talk to singer, songwriter and actor Donnie Fritts. Who tells us about playing in Kris Kristofferson’s band and making movies with Sam Peckinpah!! Plus he’s friends with Harry Dean Stanton, and THAT is the goal to which we should all aspire. Plus while we model our awesome new Harry Dean Stanton Fest t-shirts, we also mention... time-loop movies, Bernie, Moon, Jake Gyllenhaal, Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, Pretty in Pink, Dark Shadows, playing music in Japan, Jack Black being Jack Black... and not, prank war, The Cockfighters, changes in the music business, investing way too much time into S. Darko, Straight Time, Willie Nelson, Source Code, Cisco Pike, Repo Man, The Rolling Stones, meta cinematic, It was like my 13-year-old girl dream came true last night!, the Muscle Shoals music scene, and the best way to indulge your internet greed.“Out of the blue one day, he said - ‘I want you to be in this movie...” Harry Dean Stanton artwork by Stacey Earley.
