#35: Jonathan and Josh Baker (Directors, feature 'KIN' with Zoe Kravitz, James Franco, Dennis Quaid, Jack Reynor and Myles Truitt)
Listen now
Description
Brother directing duo Jonathan and Josh Baker, whose debut feature film ‘KIN’ stars Zoe Kravitz, Jack Reynor, James Franco, Dennis Quaid, and newcomer Myles Truitt, is currently playing in cinemas around the world. They discuss their approach to directing, turning down a “$70 million dollar movie” before they even had an agent, and the genesis of their creativity. Both Jonathan and Josh give their insights about career development, where they started, and the honest advice they’d tell themselves 5 or 10 years ago if they could. For these Australians currently killing it on the world-stage, you’ll get a sense of their humility and a courage of convictions above all else - a welcome respite from the diluted filmmaking landscape that explains what makes their movie ‘KIN’ so unique.
