GUEST S2 Ep 8 - Ana Lily Amirpour Director, Writer and Editor of "The Bad Batch" & "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night" ft Ana Lily Amirpour

What an amazing time having a chat with the incredible Ana Lily Amirpour. British-born American film director, producer, actor, writer and editor for her critically acclaimed films "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night" (starring Sheila Vand and Arash Marandi), "The Bad Batch" (starring Suki Waterhouse, Jason Momoa, Jim Carrey and Keanu Reeves) and up coming film "Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon" (starring Kate Hudson, Ed Skrein, Craig Robinson and Jun Jong Seo).  Her film "A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night" (2014) was described as "the first Iranian vampire spaghetti western" premiered at Sundance Film Festival, and won awards such as the Revelations Prize in 2014, the Carnet Jove Jury Award, nominated for the Halekulani Golden Orchid award at the Hawaii International Film Festival and Lily has since been called "the next Tarantino" by VICE creative director Eddy Moretti. Basically she is an absolute BAD ASS creating the most INCREDIBLE pieces of art.  Her next film "The Bad Batch" (2016) is to this day one of my favourite films and in 2016 won the Special Jury Prize at the 73rd Venice International Film Festival where it premiered (an absolute must watch!) I have been a HUGE fan of her work since I fell in love with The Bad Batch a few years back, and am waiting excitedly for her up and coming project releasing soon, "Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon". Lily thank you for coming on the show and giving me your time and knowledge, I am immensely inspired by you and your work.  Instagram  Ana Lily Amirpour  Joshua Eady
