This week we welcome back filmmakers Brett and Drew Pierce to talk about the pandemic release of their film, The Wretched. The movie thrived and was number one in the country week after week, grossing over a million dollars in drive-ins alone. Fast forward one year later, we catch up with Brett and Drew to see how their careers have changed since this massive success, what they have learned and what takeaways they have once you find yourself in a position where projects are being brought to you to pitch on. This is a very interesting conversation filled with lots of great nuggets and tough realizations about how films get made and it’s a must listen for anyone who’s making a feature in hopes of it launching their career. We also have another Get Shorty featuring The Parable of Amos Moses by filmmakers Dylan Varella and Mason Beals and we read another listener email, plus Alrik drops a big update on The Alternate!
