For Video Edition, Please Click and Subscribe Here: https://youtu.be/zfK6z5us3s4 Over the course of his 35-year career in show business, David Pevsner has done it all. He's acted on Broadway, off-Broadway, in independent films and on numerous TV network shows including Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family and Criminal Minds. In his late 30s he became a mature male escort and over the last several years has attracted a large international fan base through his blog of erotic photographs celebrating nudity and sexuality. Damn Shame is David Pevsner's incredible story and is a passionate and poignant look at one man's journey from a thin, shy boy ashamed of his body and sexuality to a defiant, fearless everyman exploring his erotic desires, everything from leather and S&M to nude/erotic/hardcore modelling. Along the way, he fights back against society's demonization of gay sex, body shaming and ageism while pursuing his own very personal definition of success and seeking love, validation and self-esteem. Damn Shame gives a loud and powerful voice to a generation of mature men who have been conditioned to believe from society (and especially younger members of the gay community) that they are sexually irrelevant, old and undesirable. David Pevsner is an LA-based actor and writer, with a little modeling on the side. His film appearances include Scrooge and Marley (as Ebenezer Scrooge), Spa Night, Joshua Tree 1951: A Portrait of James Dean, Role/Play, and Corpus Christi: Playing with Redemption. His guest starring roles on television include Silicon Valley, NCIS, I'm Dying Up Here, Modern Family, Grey's Anatomy, Liz and Dick, Law and Order LA, and he starred in the popular web series Old Dogs and New Tricks. As a songwriter, his work has been featured in the global hit show Naked Boys Singing!

Jenn, Heath, & Presley Have a Spa Night 07/27/2020
One of the strange new things about our post-COVID world, especially int he realm of entertainment, is that the demise, however hopefully temporary, of the movie theaters has evened the playing field somewhat -- blockbusters have to compete with small indies and genre movies on the VOD and streaming gridiron, which is exciting in its own way. Now, intimate gems like Andrew Ahn's Driveways have an incredible chance to be seen by others who might not otherwise give it a look. But it's well worth it; it might be one of the best films of the year to date. The second film from director Andrew Ahn, who made waves at Sundance in 2016 with his debut Spa Night, Driveways follows Kathy, played by Hong Chau, a single mother who brings her eight-year-old son Cody (played by Lucas Jaye) to upstate New York to help her clean and sell her late sister's house. When she gets there, though, she finds a whole hidden life her estranged sister kept from her -- a scrambled mess of hoarded boxes and loneliness. But as she works to understand her sister from beyond the grave in ways she didn't in life, she and Cody forge a surprisingly sweet relationship with the Korean war vet next door, played by Brian Dennehy in one of his very last screen roles. Ahn has a beautiful command of his camera and the tight-knit ensemble he's created. Hannah Bos and Paul Thureen's screenplay tells a beautiful story about the connections we have with each other, however tenuous, and the ways they can grow and drift with the passage of time. Chau and Jaye turn in wonderful work, the former is her lustrous, pained usual self, and Jaye is a remarkably sensitive young actor who puts in impeccable work. But the specter of Dennehy's passing lends this, his final major performance, an aching level of poignancy, a man who'd seen the world and was just beginning to recognize he was at the end of it. I got to speak to Andrew Ahn about working on Driveways, the adjustments you make as a sophomore filmmaker, and working with the late, great Brian Dennehy.

Julia Kim is a veteran casting director who's worked on such eclectic independent films as "But I'm a Cheerleader," "Starlet" and "Spa Night." She's also a really cool, smart, interesting woman whom Christy feels lucky to call a friend. Christy's fellow Los Angeles native talks about growing up in the San Fernando Valley in the '80s as the daughter of Korean immigrants, her early years performing as a classically trained pianist, working on "The Simpsons" during the show's '90s heyday and her 20-year career as a casting director, which includes the upcoming Sundance favorite "The Last Black Man in San Francisco." Julia also discusses her consulting company, invAsianLA, which helps Asian actors navigate the casting process, and offers tips on making your best impression during auditions. It's an especially informative episode of A La Carte, so we hope you enjoy.
As far as we can tell, there aren't that many people that can say they knew EXACTLY what their career would be early on, or had an easy time laying the groundwork to build it. For most of us regular folk, finding a career is much like a baby deer learning how to walk - it's awkward, entertaining, shaky, scary, & an inevitable part of the process. Or as we at First Of All like to call it, "the journey." How does a person take a mix of passion, interest, talent, timing, & good old-fashioned hard work, & produce a job that can pay the bills, keep our spirits inspired & our sanity intact? In this episode, Minji sits down with her dear friend & award-winning director Andrew Ahn. Together they take a look back at the many steps that brought them to their current places in life, & acknowledge the scattered but meaningful steps that brought them where they both believe they should be. Get ready from some practical advice, like student loan management & when to leave your day job for a passion career, plus some therapeutic soul-searching on anger, anxiety, & learning how to trust your gut.

The 56th New York Film Festival features three special Film Comment Talks, the first of which was our latest “Cinema of Experience” roundtable. On the occasion of our September/October cover featuring Burning star Steven Yeun—interviewed by Devika Girish about the notion of authenticity, and the excitement of working with director Lee Changdong—the focus of the talk was Asian and Asian American experience on and off screen. At the Film Society of Lincoln Center, I was joined by a stellar cast of commentators with an array of professional perspectives: Andrew Chan, web editor of the Criterion Collection; David Ninh, director of press and publicity; Genevieve Yue, assistant professor of culture and media at the New School; and Andrew Ahn, director of the film Spa Night. The 25th anniversary of The Joy Luck Club became the starting point for a thoughtful and movingly personal discussion. Stay tuned (or drop on by) for our next two talks: a chat with NYFF filmmakers and our critics' wrap-up of the films.

Episode 26 of One Week Only! This week, our key film is the LGBT drama “Spa Night” about a Korean-American teenager dealing with his family’s financial struggles and his own closeted sexuality. Directed by Andrew Ahn, and featuring a breakout performance from Joe Seo, this is a terrific, nuanced debut film about class, race, sexuality and the immigrant story; it premiered at Sundance this past January, and won the Grand Jury Prize at this year’s Outfest Film Festival. We usually interview filmmakers on the podcast, but this week we talk to film critic Diana Drumm, who has created the Twitter account “Female Film Critics” to create a community of female journalists and critics and bring attention to the lack of female representation in the entertainment journalism circuit. Drumm has created an important & necessary female space in the online journalism world; you can find her page on Facebook, and on Twitter at @FemaleCritics. Other films we cover this week include the Guatemalan drama “Ixcanul” about a Mayan family, directed by Jayro Bustamante; father-son comedy “Morris From America” by Chad Hartigan, starring Craig Robinson; documentary “Lo And Behold: Reveries of the Connected World” by Werner Herzog, about the expanding world of the internet; and German period film “The People vs Fritz Bauer” about the hunt for Nazi war criminals after WWII, directed by Lars Kraume. Hosted by Carlos Aguilar & Conor Holt. Music by Kevin MacLeod at www.incompetech.com
