With it already Thanksgiving this week, it's time for BEHIND THE LENS (and all of you) to haul out the holly, put up the tree, fill up the stockings, and grab those dreidels because the holiday season is here! And what better way to kick off the Yuletide than to get into the spirit of the season with #BTLRadioShow, talking about two wonderful films and four fabulous filmmakers. So get ready as MARISA GUTERMAN and KEITH GERCHAK tell us all about their feature directorial debut, the charming and nostalgic LOST & FOUND IN CLEVELAND, while ZAC MONCRIEF and JON COLTON BARRY fill us with the fun and joy of Christmas with the animated delight, A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS.
Our first stop today is Cleveland with the wonderfully warm and toasty slice of Americana, LOST & FOUND IN CLEVELAND. A look at the American Dream set in "the best location in the nation", this is a slice of life set over a 24-hour period that follows the personal odysseys of five very different people, whose lives intertwine when America's favorite televised antiques appraisal show comes to Cleveland. A true tapestry of the heart of America, co-directors and co-writers MARISA GUTERMAN and KEITH GERCHAK bring us a tale that shows us what is truly to be cherished in our lives.
Boasting an amazing cast with Dennis Haysbert, Dot-Marie Jones, Esther Povitsky, Jeff Hiller, Jon Lovitz, June Squibb, Stacey Keach, Loretta Devine, Mark L. Walberg, Martin Sheen, Yvette Yates Redick, and the scene stealing Benjamin Steinhauser, the film spans the generations and all walks of life, this is a film that has something and someone for every age, every demographic, and fills you with the holiday spirit.
Then we dive headfirst into Christmas and Santa and Mrs. Claus and presents and elves and Chuck E. Cheese and his friends with A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS.
Written and executive produced by ZAC MONCRIEF and JON COLTON BARRY, and co-directed by ZAC MONCRIEF, A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS is a unique blend of family-friendly animation, songs destined to become holiday classics, and filled with holiday cheer as Chuck E and his pals Helen Henny, Jasper Jowls, Bella Brinca, Munch, and Pasqually create a plan to throw a surprise party to lift Santa's Christmas spirit! But surprising the man who "sees you when you're sleeping and knows when you're awake" won't be easy. Can the gang pull it off in time to save Christmas?

BEHIND THE LENS #480: Featuring Jesse Cowell, Sergio Comacho and Jonathan Adelson
This week it's all about DANCES WITH FILMS on BEHIND THE LENS, which is taking place right now at the TCL Chinese 6 Theatres in Hollywood. Get ready for one of the most fun-filled and hilarious, yet philosophical, conversations about filmmaking as writer/director/editor/cinematographer JESSE COWELL breaks down his award-winning short film B!TCH I'M EARLY.
B!TCH I'M EARLY is brought to us by JESSE "JESKID" COWELL, and is a comedy short that follows two women in the corporate world vying for a promotion. Their conflict escalates from arguments to a race to the office. The six-minute film satirizes corporate culture with effective comedic timing and increasing tension while also providing tacit commentary on ageism, racism, and diversity.
Now we shift gears for the thirst-quenching tasty treat, the series pilot.
Directed by SERGIO COMACHO and written by JONATHAN ADELSON, UNITED CRAFTS OF AMERICA offers an intimate look into America's most vibrant craft beer cities, uncovering the country's most innovative breweries and the passionate people behind them. The journey begins with New York City's Interboro Spirits & Ales, where co-owners Laura Dierks and Jesse Ferguson blend beer and hip-hop to create one of NYC's most influential breweries, breathing new life into the city's rich brewing heritage.
In this exclusive interview, Sergio and Jonathan break down this pilot episode discussing the inspiration for the series, finding Interboro Spirits & Ales, research, developing a through line, filming (which is simply gorgeous thanks to DP Joel Froome and the Sigma Cine Series and Laowa 2x macro lenses used), beer styling!!!, calling on author/ journalist/and beer critic John Holl to serve as a guide, musical score, and creating an intimacy with the storytelling and the imagery, among others.
