Episode 118: 1on1 with Alex Rappoport (WITH PETER BRADLEY)

John Hsu

What would January be without BEHIND THE LENS supporting Slamdance Film Festival and taking a look at some of the films screening in the upcoming festival! And boy have we got a couple of winners for you on this week's show thanks to JOHN HSU talking about STARRING JERRY AS HIMSELF and ALEX RAPPOPORT talking WITH PETER BRADLEY!First up, producer/writer/actor JOHN HSU is live talking about his new film, the documentary STARRING JERRY AS HIMSELF. A contender in the Documentary Feature category at Slamdance, this is a film you've got to see to believe. Filled with heart, joy, sadness, and mystery, the film is a "docu-fiction hybrid that blurs the lines of reality while staying true to the subject and his story." Skillfully edited to tell this unique story, John provides a real insider perspective to the "making of" STARRING JERRY AS HIMSELF; John is Jerry's son and also appears in the documentary. And get ready for a real life twist by film's end. And then, director/cinematographer/editor ALEX RAPPOPORT is on hand discussing his new documentary which is going head-to-head with STARRING JERRY AS HIMSELF in the Slamdance Documentary Feature category – WITH PETER BRADLEY.An intimate documentary portrait of abstract artist Peter Bradley, now age 79, this is a reflection by Bradley on life, on art, his career, and his artistic process. I have long admired some of Bradley's early works from the 1970s but then he kind of disappeared from the canvas until 2021. A truly up close and personal look at an incredible man. Discussing his directorial choices at length for style, development of a through-line, visual approach, use of color, and more, Alex gives us a very interesting discussion on his filmmaking approach not only with WITH PETER BRADLEY, but in general.http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
