Sean Baker

The man behind The Florida Project (one of the year's best movies) joins Leonard and Jessie for a candid look at his career, which began on public-access television in Manhattan. His last feature, Tangerine, caused a stir because it was shot entirely on iPhones…but it's the content, not the cameras, that makes these movies so good. (His latest was photographed on 35mm film.) Sean shares the story of his "overnight" success and explains why he thanks Spanky McFarland and the creators of the Little Rascals at the end of The Florida Project.
