Just Shoot It: A Podcast about Filmmaking, Screenwriting and Directing

Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas is a producer, writer, ex-agent, chick-flick-advocate and all around badass. She tells the story of how she brought the hit movie Hustlers to audiences despite hearing "no" all over hollywood, the time she got her highschool boyfriend on CHiPs, and how the term "chick flick" is a compliment of the highest order. Oren and I (Matt) take a trip over to Elaine's bungalow on the lot to sit down with this Hollywood power player.  This episode is sponsored by Shot Lister, the better way to make your day.
