Award-winning movie director, writer and producer John K.D. Graham joins me to talk about how the Bible and storytelling leads him in the faith-based films he makes, the latest one being shot in the Columbus GA area called "The Greatest Inheritance," starring Jaleel White and Mena Suvari. Make sure to subscribe to this podcast! After a sneak peek at that film, for which he was the lead director, (5:20) we talk to this founder of Mustard Seed Entertainment about what it was like to make a movie in the midst of the COVID pandemic, how that "leap of faith" went and what they learned about safety for the future. He said God made a way! (10:25) There are stereotypes about faith-based movies, and Graham talks about that, how to get audiences to watch, especially with more places to stream like Pureflix where his movie "Switched" (starring Denise Richards and John Schneider) was voted a fan favorite. (17:25) He talks some too about working with bigger name actors and actresses, and why they may choose a Christian-based film, like Jaleel White and Suvari. (22:05) I also ask Graham about the infamous moment at the Oscars, Will Smith slapping Chris Rock, which he said was extreme but indicative of the times. Our guest for the "Run The Race" podcast also enjoys helping future filmmakers like at his alma mater the Savannah College of Art and Design. His advice: Go do it! He also gets some fitness while shooting a movie. (30:05) In his writing and directing of movies. Graham talks about how faith and the Bible influences that storytelling, following God's lead. (34:49) He also talks about the branding of Mustard Seed Entertainment, providing family friendly things for people to watch. (44:25) Before my closing prayer, the segment "Food for Thought" is about the movie-like fairy tale run of the UNC Tar Heels in March Madness, including their new coach being candid about Jesus.

This week we review new film Above Suspicion, new docuseries Crime of the Century, and new miniseries The Drowning. We also discuss the newest lesbian couple on network TV, and give away free digital screeners of the new film, Locked In.

It's a full house this week on #BTLRadioShow thanks to our special guests, filmmakers STEPHEN JANIS, DEANNE FOLEY, and LATONIA HARTERY. Plus, some quick review bytes on two new films streaming everywhere right now – ME YOU MADNESS and PARADISE COVE. One of my fave films of the year already is ME YOU MADNESS, written and directed by LOUISE LINTON and starring Linton and Ed Westwick. Irreverant, politically incorrect, high octane, glamorous, breaking the fourth, rapier wit-filled darkly comedic action movie love story, ME YOU MADNESS is delicious dark decadent fun from start to finish. Linton shows good command as not only a wordsmith, but as a storyteller (much of which I believe we can credit to her trial advocacy skills as a lawyer) is well constructed and structured. Visually, Linton knocks it out of the park with polish and color thanks to cinematographers Reinhart Reschke and Boa Simon, whose lighting and lensing only serve to elevate the already sumptuous production design of Allura Johnson and Travis Zariwny, while editor Samuel Means maintains high octane energy, most notably in some over-the-top musical montages set to touchstone needle drops of the past few decades. (I want the soundtrack.) And then there's PARADISE COVE. Written by Sherry Klein and directed by Martin Guigi, PARADISE COVE stars veteran actors Todd Grinnell, Mena Suvari, and Kristin Bauer van Straten in this psychological thriller genre blend based on a true story. Van Straten stars as Bree, a once-wealthy Malibu matriarch and actress who has lost her home but refuses to leave the Paradise Cove colony, now living on the beach underneath her once home. Grinnell and Suvari are Knox and Tracey, a young married couple looking to get rich quick by flipping the Malibu beach home of Knox's recently deceased mother. Of course, that home was once Bree's and under which Knox and Tracey find her. Performances are solid with van Straten soaring as Bree. And while the script itself is unremarkable and easily fills the bill as a Lifetime TV movie versus a "theatrical" release film, elevating the film as a whole is Guigi's direction and his collaboration with DP Massimo Zeri, production designer Alessandro Marvelli (who uses color and texture to define and distinguish the character traits of our principals) and editor Eric Potter, the latter who delivers some truly shocking moments thanks to abrupt emotional cuts. Co-directors DEANNE FOLEY and LATONIA HARTERY join us live in the first half of the show talking about their charming and sweet anthology narrative about love and romance, HOPELESS ROMANTIC. Six women, six stories about love, all told within the setting of a wedding complete with the good, the bad, and the ugly cry. You laugh, you cry, you nod your head in sympathy, and by film's end you may even find yourself more of a "hopeful" romantic than not. Deanne directs one of the "segments" as well as the umbilical throughline while Latonia is not only one of the directors but a producer of the film which meant she was on hand for virtually all of the filming. Listen as Deanne and Latonia talk about the genesis of this anthology, collaboration amongst all six female directors, crafting characters and casting, diversity of characters, finding cohesive yet individually distinctive tone, using one cinematographer and one editor for the entire film and each segment, scoring, and let's not forget, the wealth of talent in the Nova Scotia area who we see on screen and behind the lens. Joining us at the midpoint of the show for a fascinating conversation about his documentary, THE FRIENDLIEST TOWN, is STEPHEN JANIS. An award-winning investigative journalist, author, musician, and now writer/co-director/editor of the documentary, Steph. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Paul and Erika are alone in the studio again, and they’re taking aim at an actual Best Picture Winner...1999’s American Beauty! Were they overwhelmed? Were they underwhelmed? Is it possible to just be whelmed? Listen and find out! -Medusa is Annie Lennox’s album where she covers songs originally performed by men and it’s a great rainy day listen. -The Bening-verse is speckled with great, under-lauded performances. Pick one! Of course, the film Paul and Erika kept calling “Julia” is actually called “Being Julia.” YES WE KNOW, WE’RE SORRY!

Don’t worry listeners...Paul and Erika didn’t spontaneously combust while watching 1999’s American Pie. They were actually surprised at how well some of it held up! Some of it. The rest was exactly as you expect. SHOW NOTES -Blockers is a great film and you should watch it.  -Schitt’s Creek is a fantastic show, and if you’re sleeping on it, you need to wake up. Once you’re awake, click this link and it’ll take you right to it. -Mozart in the Jungle! For anyone who likes TV about symphonies or looking at Gael Garcia Bernal!

In Episode 94 of the Crooked Table Podcast, Robert Yaniz Jr. brings Michael Hinman — host of Alpha Waves Radio — onto the show to discuss his all-time favorite film, 1999's comedy/drama American Beauty. Winner of five Academy Awards (including Best Picture), the Sam Mendes-directed film is emblematic not only of the kind of fearless filmmaking that rarely breaks into the mainstream these days but also of the landmark year in cinema that was 1999. Kudos to screenwriter Alan Ball, whose work still stands one of the best examples of a film that has actually grown better with time. Kevin Spacey (yes, despite his real-life controversy) delivers an unforgettable Oscar-winning turn as a sad-sack family man whose midlife crisis/reawakening ultimately leads up to his untimely death (don't worry, this is decidedly not a spoiler). However, Spacey is matched by equally astounding work by an ensemble that includes Chris Cooper, Thora Birch, Mena Suvari, Wes Bentley and Allison Janney. In particular, the perpetually underrated Annette Bening creates an indelible impression of her own as Spacey's long-suffering wife. Whether you've never seen it or, like Mike, have revisited American Beauty in the years since it stormed theaters, take an hour to smell the roses and listen in as we discuss one of the most indelible Best Picture winners of the past two decades: American Beauty.

Oscar Month ends with this episode as Kevin Spacey & Annette Bening share the hate in most comical fashion. The Oscar-winner was a mega-hit and it’s still vivid & funny, but also a touch dated. The young actors more than hold their own in Sam Mendes’ debut as a film director. Look closer at this one while also tracking down some Sparkplug.Coffee!
