7: Andrew Haigh's Lean on Pete

In this episode, we discuss Andrew Haigh's latest film, Lean on Pete, a film we loved so much we wrote an entire eBook on the film, which you can now purchase in our shop. Based on the book by Willy Vlautin, Lean on Pete tells the story of 15-year-old Charley, who finds himself suddenly without a home or guardian, and sets off alone, in search of somewhere and someone to call home — first at the local horse racing stable, and later, on the road and into the wilderness with the horse Lean on Pete, as they head toward Charley's long-lost aunt's house. For this discussion, Editor-in-Chief Alex Heeney is joined by Associate Editor Orla Smith and Contributing Editor Brett Pardy.
