The Lawler Brothers (Jake & Conor Lawler)

Brothers and filmmakers Jake Lawler and Conor Lawler join Eman Esfandi and Journey Bailey as the first guests on Keepers of the Fire. They discuss everything from brotherhood to football to mental health, as well as how they each fell in love with cinema in their own unique ways. The group analyzes a pair of movies they watched in advance, so SPOILER ALERT! This episode contains analysis of the 2018 film Border directed by Ali Abbasi, and the 1946 film A Matter of Life and Death (Stairway to Heaven) directed by Emeric Pressburger and Michael Powell. Cozy up around the fire and get ready for some laughs, welcome to Keepers of the Fire!
