Academy Award-winning actress Melissa Leo peeled back the layers of her acting process and how she approached films like “The Fighter,” “The Equalizer” films and “Flight” opposite Denzel Washington, plus her newest film, “Unlovable,” directed by Suzi Yoonessi and starring John Hawkes and the film’s screenwriter Charlene deGuzman. Leo also opened up about working with different types of actors and directors and how the key players inform her experiences on set. Creatively, directors like Antoine Fuqua, with whom she worked on “The Equalizer” films, allow Leo to infuse their own spin on characters. “For me, method acting is that one would have a method,” Leo told Salon. “Sometimes you need to use tools as an actor, sometimes you just learn the words, and you're opposite Denzel Washington, and it feels real, and it is real, and you just do it.” --- About “Salon Talks” Hosted by Salon journalists, “Salon Talks” episodes offer a fresh take on the long-form interview format, and a much-needed break from the partisan political talking heads that have come to dominate the genre. “Salon Talks” is a destination for information through conversation.

This week we are so lucky to have the director of the new film Unlovable, Suzi Yoonessi. Her movie follows Joy, played by Charlene deGuzman, a recovering sex and love addict who finds solace in making music with the gruff brother (John Hawkes) of her sponsor (Melissa Leo). The movie that Suzi has decided to discuss is 2006's Korean monster masterpiece, The Host. While maybe not immediately recognizable as an influence, Suzi explains that director Bong Joon-ho's focus on character and relationships has had a great effect on her work. She and April go over the process of pitching a movie that's never been made before, and the kind of work that goes into those types of meetings. Suzi also elaborates on working with John Hawkes and Melissa Leo. She even explains how it was difficult to cast John Hawkes because he doesn't have an email address. And lastly, Suzi and April compare how both The Host and Unloveable take real elements from the lives of the filmmakers in order to create a truly believable and engrossing story. Check out the trailer for Unlovable which is streaming and in select theaters now. And if you haven't seen it yet, go watch The Host. With April Wolfe with Suzi Yoonessi.

Happy Friday folks! This week I have three Film Fatales joining me. I was probably way to eager to speak with founder of the Film Fatales organization, Leah Meyerhoff. We talked about how the organization started and why its existence is necessary in these times. I also talk with director Sharon Lewis about her Afrofuturist film, Black Girl Begins. We talk about the origins of her creating the film and what Afrofuturism is. Finally, I talk with director Suzi Yoonessi about her film Unlovable. I had the pleasure of seeing the film and you can too next week, Nov. 2nd as it has a limited release in theaters!  It was awesome talking with these women directors. You’ll absolutely want to be on the lookout for the Picture Lock PR After Show conversations I had with Sharon and Suzi which will be dropped exclusively on the podcast Monday.  Find out more about Film Fatales here: http://www.filmfatales.org/ See the beginning of Ti-Jeanne’s power here: https://www.thesharonlewis.com/work/brown-girl-begins/ Check out Suzi and Unlovable here: https://www.suziyoonessi.com Picture Lock Links: Take my PR For The Indie Filmmaker online course here: https://indiefilmpr.thinkific.com/ Get a partner as passionate as you in your film or film event's publicity: www.picturelockpr.com Subscribe to this podcast in iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/kevin-sampsons-picture-lock/id639359584?mt=2 Be sure to visit www.picturelockshow.com for everything Picture Lock!

Joyful and boss director Suzi Yoonessi has two films out this year: “UNLOVABLE", a Duplass Brothers' film premiering at SXSW starring Oscar-winner Melissa Leo, Oscar-nominee John Hawkes and Charlene deGuzman, and Blue Ribbon Content's “DAPHNE AND VELMA" from the Scooby Doo universe. Also known for her award-winning feature “DEAR LEMON LIMA”, Suzi has created acclaimed content for Funny or Die, Lancome, Kylie Jenner and Snapchat. We discuss one way she’s become a good judge of character (and by extension, an award-winning filmmaker ), the surprising advantage of leaving powerhouse talent agencies, and a guiding purpose for her work that made me want to raise my own standards for my creative purpose. Don’t be intimidated though, because Suzi’s pretty awesome and you’ll want to listen past the half-way mark for what she thinks makes a good actor, and two paths she can suggest for a director wanting to jump-start their career.
