Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 121- Ma, Godzilla, and Rocketman w/ Tim Gordon
Happy Friday folks! This week I’m joined by WAFCA President, Tim Gordon, to go over the big movies coming out this weekend. One that we don’t get to is the Netflix release “When They See Us” from Ava Duvernay that looks at the Central Park 5. It’s a tough watch but I suggest folks check it out as while it chronicles a dark spot in our recent history, the story is still playing out today. I spoke about it on Let’s Talk Live early today, so be sure to visit picturelockshow.com or follow me on instagram @picturelockshow to see that! What did you think about the films out this week? Let me know!

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 115- Fall Back Spring Forward (Spring 2019) ft. Douglas Davidson
Happy Friday fam! Today on the show I’m finally putting out my Fall Back Spring Forward Spring 2019 episode. I had Douglas Davidson of Elements of Madness join me to talk about our most and least anticipated films of the spring of this year. We recorded this March 13th, but I’ve had so many time sensitive interviews I haven’t been able to put it out. So some of our picks have already hit theaters but the majority have not. Did we pick some of your favorites? Agree or disagree with our list? Let me know on social! Sit back, relax, press play and enjoy!

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 99- The Front Runner, Jamielyn Lippman, Ashley York, Dawn Mikkelson, & Norah Shapiro
Happy Friday folks! I’m so glad I get to cap off this election week with an episode of personal and political empowerment. I spoke with director Jamielyn Lippman about her documentary “3 Years in Pakistan: The Erik Aude Story”, director Ashley York about her film “Hillbilly”, director Dawn Mikkelson of “Risking Light” and director Norah Shapiro about her doc “Time for Ilhan”. Now the cool thing about “Time for Ilhan” is that it covers Ilhan Omar’s race for a seat in the Minnesota House of Representatives in 2016 which made her the first Somali-American legislator to hold an elected office, and she just became the first Somali-American Muslim to hold a seat in US congress. So congrats to her! But first I’ve got my movie review of a political defeat in “The Frontrunner”, starring Hugh Jackman which hits theaters this weekend.
