Today we're joined by directing duo Adam Schindler and Brian Netto, the creative minds behind the new horror thriller Don't Move. The guys share how they transformed the universal fear of immobility into a gripping narrative that they ultimately sold to Netflix and discuss what it was like shooting in the Bulgarian wilderness, working with legendary producer Sam Raimi, and how they developed a hauntingly charismatic serial killer played by Finn Wittrock, alongside a powerful and emotionally charged performance by lead actress Kelsey Asbille. Don't Move is now streaming on Netflix.Here are some key takeaways from this conversation with Brian and Adam:Take Breaks.Early drafts of their script didn't work—there was a disconnect between the concept of paralysis and the main character's emotional journey. Rather than forcing a solution, they decided to put the project aside for a while and focus on other things. When they returned to the script with fresh perspectives, they were able to see the story's missing elements more clearly and reapproach it with renewed energy.The takeaway here is don't be afraid to pause: when creativity stalls, putting your project down for a short period can provide the mental clarity and distance needed to spot problems and find solutions. Even if you're not directly working on a project, your brain will subconsciously work on a solution in the background. Patience leads to stronger work: Rushing to force solutions can lead to uninspired results. Instead, embrace the process and trust that time away can lead to breakthroughs.Write a Scalable Script.Brian and Adam intentionally crafted a story that could be produced at varying budget levels, making it adaptable for different production scenarios. This strategy proved invaluable when pitching the project. Whether it became a $1M indie film shot in a handful of locations or a larger studio-backed production with expanded scope, the story's essence and emotional core remained intact and gave them the flexibility to pitch to a wide array of producers.They compared their approach to Beck and Woods who wrote A Quiet Place. When pitching A Quiet Place, Beck and Woods famously intended to shoot their high-concept horror story for $75,000 in their hometown if it didn't sell. By ensuring their script could be executed with minimal resources, the Don't Move team gave themselves the flexibility to proceed regardless of the budgetary constraints. For Don't Move, the scalability made the film an easier sell to partners, such as producer Sam Raimi and Netflix, while also leaving room for creative adjustments based on the final budget.Safety First.One of the most critical lessons the directors learned from Sam Raimi was the importance of prioritizing safety on set. Raimi repeatedly emphasized that it was their responsibility as directors to ensure the well-being of every cast and crew member, whether during stunt work or handling environmental hazards like shooting scenes on a 200-foot cliff or filming complex car stunts. No shot or sequence is worth compromising the safety of cast or crew, and it's the directors' job to uphold this standard at all times.This commitment to safety extended beyond stunts. Through their leadership, the directors fostered an environment where every crew member felt valued and secure, which in turn contributed to a more collaborative and focused set. By prioritizing safety, they set the tone for a productive and respectful creative process.Show NotesMovies Discussed:GravityThe Vanishing (1988)BarbarianSmileFollow Brian Netto at:IMBd:

Sean Comer and Mark Radulich review movies currently on streaming services and in theaters: Stan and Ollie/Chaplin/Judy Movie Review! First up is Stan and Ollie (2018). Then we move on to Chaplin (1992). Finally we review Judy (2019).Stan & Ollie is a 2018 biographical comedy-drama film directed by Jon S. Baird. The script, written by Jeff Pope, was inspired by Laurel and Hardy: The British Tours by A.J. Marriot which chronicled the later years of the comedy double act Laurel and Hardy; the film stars Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly as Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. The film focuses on details of the comedy duo's personal relationship while relating how they embarked on a gruelling music hall tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland during 1953 and struggled to get another film made.The film premiered on 21 October 2018 at the closing night gala of the BFI London Film Festival. It was released in the United States on 28 December 2018 and in the United Kingdom on 11 January 2019. At the 76th Golden Globe Awards, Reilly was nominated for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and at the 72nd British Academy Film Awards the film earned three nominations, including Best British Film and Best Actor in a Leading Role for Coogan.Chaplin is a 1992 biographical comedy-drama film about the life of English comic actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin. It was produced and directed by Richard Attenborough and stars Robert Downey Jr., Marisa Tomei, Dan Aykroyd, Penelope Ann Miller and Kevin Kline. It also features Charlie Chaplin's own daughter, Geraldine Chaplin, in the role of his mother, Hannah Chaplin.The film underperformed at the box office, grossing $12 million against a $31 million budget, and received mixed reviews from critics; Downey's titular performance, however, garnered critical acclaim and won him the BAFTA Award for Best Actor along with nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actor and Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama.Judy is a 2019 biographical drama film based on the life of American entertainer Judy Garland. Directed by Rupert Goold, it is an adaptation of the Olivier- and Tony-nominated West End and Broadway play End of the Rainbow by Peter Quilter. The film stars Renée Zellweger, Jessie Buckley, Finn Wittrock, Rufus Sewell, and Michael Gambon.The film follows Garland's career during the last year of her life, when she relocated her stage career to England, coupled with flashbacks of her childhood, most prominently the shooting of her part as Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz (1939), her most famous film role. After some initial success in a run of sell-out concerts at the Talk of the Town in London, her efforts eventually stop making progress and even start to worsen as her health deteriorates.Judy premiered at the 46th Telluride Film Festival on 30 August 2019, and was released in the United States on 27 September 2019, and in the United Kingdom on 2 October 2019. The film received generally positive reviews, with Zellweger's performance garnering widespread acclaim. For her portrayal of Garland, Zellweger won the Academy Award for Best Actress, as well as the Golden Globe Award, SAG Award, BAFTA Award and Critics' Choice Movie Award.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Isha Blaaker is an actor and model and has just made his big screen debut opposite Aunjanue Ellis, Niecy Nash, Jon Bernthal, Jasmine Cephas Jones, Finn Wittrock, and more in Oscar-nominated filmmaker Ava DuVernay's highly anticipated film feature “Origin” (Neon), based on Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson's 2020 bestselling book “Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents.” On the television front, Isha most recently starred in debut roles for season two of “Run The World” on STARZ and opposite Colman Dolmingo in the eighth and final season of AMC's “Fear The Walking Dead.” Isha is also well-known for his role in the 12th film in Tyler Perry's iconic Madea franchise, “A Madea Homecoming.” Before Isha landed his breakout role in a feature Netflix film, he honed his craft with a handful of recurring appearances in television, appearing on the Emmy-nominated HBO Max series, “The Flight Attendant,” opposite Kaley Cuoco, as well as Violet Hour Media's horror-thriller series, “Red Riding Hoods,” and a SBS6 action series, “DNA” in the Netherlands. It wasn't long after he obtained his master's degree that he was scouted by an American modelling agency to come work in New York City, and throughout the past few years Isha has starred in major international luxury brand campaigns for the likes of Hugo Boss, L'Oreal, Ralph Lauren, and an Estée Lauder commercial opposite Ana de Armas, to name just a few. As his name continued to become more well-known in fashion, Isha developed a love for acting and began taking classes and studying the craft professionally for four years prior to booking back-to-back roles in TV and film. He now credits acting as his true passion and a daily commitment next to modelling. We chat about competitive martial arts, being the king of accents, long term success mindset, modelling, his nickname the charming boxer, hustle, his new movie plus plenty more… The video footage of this entire chat is now out as well (one day after release)!

This week's guest is Deanna Barillari, who is a dear friend and also a great mentor to Jessica Kantor's son. Deanna is my first guest that doesn't have children of her own but is very important in other children's lives. It took me two years to have my son. And there was a big chance that I wasn't going to have one, and I still wanted to make an impact on the next generation the best way that I knew how. I definitely don't want this to feel like a club childless people are not a part of because every action we do affects the next generation. Deanna Barillari has fifteen years of development and production experience across film and television based in LA and NY, with a passion for stories and those who tell them. Most recently, Deanna produced Chelsea Peretti's upcoming directorial debut, FIRST TIME FEMALE DIRECTOR, for FOX alongside Amy Poehler and her Paper Kite Productions. Deanna is a Sundance Creative Producing, Catalyst, Film Independent Project Involve, and IFP Cannes Producing Fellow. Feature credits include IFC's MONDAY by Argyris Papadimitropolous starring Sebastian Stan and Denise Gough (Tribeca 2020, TIFF 2020), Sony's LONG WEEKEND by Steve Basilone starring Finn Wittrock and Zoe Chao, and multiple music videos for acclaimed filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson. Currently, Deanna is also developing a television series with Daniel Radcliffe, Lord Miller, and Amblin Television based on Kurt Vonnegut's short stories.Films discussed in this episode include:AnnieEmmet Otter's Jug-Band ChristmasBack to the FutureJurassic ParkTommy BoyCluelessThat Thing You DoDaisy Jones and the SixNashvilleGreaseGuys and DollsFootlooseBlack SwanUncle BuckLittle Shop of HorrorsGooniesDazed and ConfusedCast AwayLicorice PizzaJosie and the PussycatsCrazy Ex-GirlfriendSingin in the RainA Star is BornTick,Tick.., BOOM!Rent New Episodes Every Wednesday!EPISODE CREDITS:Host, Producer, Editor: Jessica KantorBooker: Noelia MurphyBe sure to follow and tag Raising Cinephiles on Instagram

One of the favorite movie genres amongst Lodgers is the all but defunct erotic thriller genre. Yet at the ripe age of 81, director Adrian Lyne is back with a new erotic thriller to hopefully revive the genre he popularized with classics like Fatal Attraction (1987), Indecent Proposal (1993), and Unfaithful (2002). Adrian Lyne's new film, which is his first in 20 years, is called Deep Water and it stars Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas as a troubled couple. A supporting cast includes Tracy Letts, Lil Rel Howery, Dash Mihok, Finn Wittrock, Kristen Connolly, and Jacob Elordi. After many delays in release, the movie got dumped on Hulu back in March when we watched it. We'll let you know if Lyne delivered another erotic thriller classic, or if he's lost a step in the 20 years he's been away. The movie is based on the 1957 novel of the same name by Patricia Highsmith.
