THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! – Producer Marissa and the MaxFilm Gang
***
The main character of TONY is Anthony Bourdain, but Matt Johnson’s latest film is not exactly a biopic. We have film critic Katie Walsh with us to discuss Dominic Sessa, Antonio Banderas, and the rest of the kitchen crew in this unusual coming of age movie. Then we’ll think up some other personalities we’d like to see inspire coming-of-age/early-life pics.
What’s Good
Drea: actors with real teeth
Katie: Matt Johnson’s biceps
Kevin: finding childhood books (Chilling Ghost Stories, and Choose Your Own Adventure: The Cave of Time and Revenge of the Rainbow Dragons)
