BEHIND THE LENS #230: Featuring Bill Haney

This is a long-awaited episode of BEHIND THE LENS thanks to our incredible guest, entrepreneur and acclaimed documentarian BILL HANEY. Over the decades, Bill has shined a light on numerous important issues, honing in on the personal aspects and ramifications of subjects like slave labor in the sugar cane fields of the Dominican Republic with "The Price of Sugar", or the environmentally hazardous method of mountaintop removal for coal extraction from Coal River Mountain with "The Last Mountain". But now, Bill brings us a documentary that focuses on a man but touches on mankind on a global scale. A scientist, a Nobel prize winner, a man whose multi-decades passion and commitment led him to seek, and find, a cure for cancer – JIM ALLISON: BREAKTHROUGH. Listen to our insightful and thoughtful discussion on the making of JIM ALLISON: BREAKTHROUGH through the lens of Jim Allison's journey as a man, a son, and a scientist, as well as gain insight into Bill and some of his socially aware and affecting endeavors beyond filmmaking. Plus, take a listen to our exclusive interview with acclaimed writer/director/editor/producer LARRY FESSENDEN talking his latest film (after a long absence from the director's chair), a 21st-century reimagination of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" with DEPRAVED. http://behindthelensonline.net http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
