Welcome to a very special bonus episode of Director's
Club. These days you can find our guest directing episodes of
TV shows like FARGO, DEXTER, THE LEFTOVERS, HOMELAND, MASTERS OF
SEX, RECTIFY and so much more. But if you grew up in the 80s
like me, you probably recognized the talent on display in a horror
film like CHRISTINE or a comedy like BACK TO SCHOOL. What I
wholeheartedly recommend are the films directed by the one and only
Keith Gordon.
I first saw A MIDNIGHT CLEAR, took note of the name of the
director, and became a huge fan from that point on when I rented
his films in the mid-to-late 90s. I am still a huge fan to this
day, and this interview was a really special event for the
podcast. And I couldn't have had a more pleasant, engaging,
and fascinating discussion with someone I would consider to be a
hero. He continues to work hard to this day, and we even talk
about possible projects in the works that I hope come into
fruition. We also discuss my four favorite films of his going
back to his debut adaptation of THE CHOCOLATE WAR, A MIDNIGHT
CLEAR, MOTHER NIGHT and WAKING THE DEAD. For more on Keith,
check out his IMDB to see some of his many credits and be sure to
rent/stream all of his incredible work. Thank you so much for
listening to what I consider to be an interview that I will never
forget.
