Podcasts about westerns

When a zombie filmmaker makes you laugh so hard you forget you're talking about death and destruction, you know you're in for something special. On today's episode, we welcome Marc V. Price, a fiercely independent British filmmaker whose claim to fame is making a cult zombie feature called Colin for just £45. That alone should make you lean in. But that's just the prologue. This is a man whose journey into the heart of DIY cinema is paved not with glamour, but with grit, late-night edits, and an undying love for storytelling that's as infectiously entertaining as the virus in his debut film.Marc V. Price is a visionary guerrilla filmmaker who turns limited budgets into limitless creativity.In this profound conversation, we dive deep into the chaos, comedy, and consciousness of being an indie director who not only survived the industry's many booby traps, but did so while telling stories worth hearing. His reflections on Colin—a film made while overdrafted and eating whatever he could scrape up—are as humble as they are inspiring. What started as an experiment in shoestring storytelling exploded into a global festival darling, not because it was flashy, but because it was honest. And that's where Marc's strength lies—he doesn't pander, he creates.We drift into an epic conversation on the Star Wars universe. This isn't fanboy babble; it's an existential breakdown of myth, legacy, and the strange, often contradictory reactions that fandom provokes. Marc speaks with wit and clarity about his take on The Last Jedi, “I have a character, I have no idea where Kylo Ren is going in the next film, so I'm really interested now.” There's no arrogance in his opinion, just a deep appreciation for complexity and imperfection, a theme that winds its way through all his art.But Marc isn't just waxing poetic about galaxies far, far away. He shares the alchemy behind his newer projects—Nightshooters and A Fistful of Lead. These aren't just action flicks; they're love letters to the film crews behind the scenes. Imagine a group of low-budget filmmakers caught in a building rigged for demolition while gangsters try to kill them—forced to use their behind-the-camera skills to survive. This isn't satire, it's celebration. It's also the sort of beautiful madness only someone like Marc could conjure.What stands out most is Marc's radical respect for collaboration. He believes the true magic of filmmaking lies in giving young talent real responsibility. On his sets, interns aren't coffee runners—they're script supervisors and first ACs.This communal spirit translates into films that are textured, layered, and brimming with the energy of people who actually care. He's not just making movies; he's building a village.Even in setbacks—like getting fired from a film he poured his soul into—Marc finds the lesson, finds the momentum. Instead of sulking, he pivots. He doubles down. He makes another movie. And another. By the end of the month, he'll have two features under his belt. He's not chasing Hollywood; he's chasing the muse, armed with a battered camera, a mischievous grin, and a hell of a lot of heart.And perhaps most beautifully, Marc wears his humanity like armor. He laughs at himself, calls out his own missteps, and embraces the contradictions of the creative life. From living broke with roommates in London, to pitching ridiculous Star Wars spin-offs, to dreaming of snow-covered Westerns in the UK, he embodies what it means to stay playful—even when things get dark.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.
