480. 4Qs with Peter Menchini

What are the 4Qs? (1) Three favorite films. (2) An underrated film. (3) An overrated film. (4) A lesser-known film people should seek out. Happy 2025 My Dear Discover Indie Film Listeners! Our first podcast release of the year is a follow up to Tuesday’s very special talk with filmmaker Peter Menchini. Peter Menchini directed the animated short, “When Mama and Me Lived Outside,” that took home the Grand Jury Award for Best Short Film – Animation at Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2023. I am delighted to launch this new year/new chapter with Peter’s 4Qs.

In his words, “A scene from Barton Fink for a directing class. Charlie, carrying a shotgun, sets the hotel on fire, then goes upstairs where 2 cops have Barton handcuffed to his bed. Each shot becomes more orange, and then we also had to simulate flames with no budget. I just think that’s so fun.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Discover Indie Film Website – Instagram – Facebook – BlueSky The INDIE Channel The INDIE Channel Website – Instagram – Facebook – TikTok
