Arthouse Garage is back! After a long hiatus, the podcast is back to look at the best films of 2024. Film critic Russell Miller returns to the show to talk about the best scenes, performances, and films of the year.
On this episode, I interview the filmmakers behind BIG BOYS, a queer coming-of-age film that's playing at the 2024 Reel Queer Film Festival this Saturday, Aug. 10. Info and tickets at ReelQueerFilm.comWriter/director Corey Sherman and producer Allison Tate were kind enough to talk with me about this film, which is one of my favorite of the year so far.
