Classic American Movies

Review and interview!What happens when a quiet 1982 Michigan suburb is suddenly transported back to prehistoric times? You get The End of Oak Street—the intensely fun new film from David Robert Mitchell, the brilliant mind behind It Follows.Touted as the best dinosaur movie since 1993's Jurassic Park, this flick stars Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor navigating a neighborhood overrun by feathered dinos, giant bugs, and unexpected suburban drama. Somehow, it all works.“Oak Street” was filmed in Georgia and I knew the 2nd 2nd AD, Riley Flanagan, who was a former guest. On my 100th episode, he was promoting his business, ByADsforADs, a great tool for filmmakers and when I saw his name in the credits, I asked if he wanted to come back.So, kick back and hear my thoughts on the flick, followed by behind the scenes from one of the people who was there.

Yorgos Lanthimos has a new movie dropping and this time Emma Stone isn’t naked. Bugonia is a solid flick that relies heavily on the actors and light on the plot, so much so I was interested in how the movie interested me so much. Jesse Plemmons plays Teddy, a tin foil hat guy who listens to too much Joe Rogan and is convinced Michelle (Stone) is an alien who wants to eliminate the human race, one bee colony at a time. Is Teddy nuts or is Michelle not who the world thinks she is? Lanthimos delivers the goods with this remake of a 2003 Korean flick that had me guessing till the end.If you’re not doing so already, please like and follow Classic American Movies on Instagram and Facebook.

All actors will want to listen to this episode: Growing up in Long Valley, NJ, Brett was encouraged to pursue his dreams, and pursue he did! Residing within driving distance of New York City, he sought after theater, became a professional tap dancer and theater acting before making his move to Los Angeles by the age of 19. Over the years, he’s enhanced his craft to include a professional actor, producer and director, with hundreds of credits. With his company LA Reels, he and his former business partner created one of the first demo reel companies (shooting original content for actors’ reels, filming over 4000 scenes in the last 12 years). Now, he’s developed a site to help actors rehearse with an AI partner 24/7, called RehearseNow.Ai . The site allows actors to upload their script and choose an AI rehearsal partner to go over the scene with and the partner responds in real time. I was actually talking about something like this with a friend of mine and Brett had already created it, so I had to bring him on to hear more about this. We talk a lot about movies, the future of filmmaking and more!From October 5th-25th, RehearseNow.AI is running a contest The A.I. Scene Partner Challenge in which actors submit their best audition using www.RehearseNow.AI . Scripts will be provided by LA Reels. Top 10 Actors chosen will do a meet and greet with three professional casting and the top actor chosen wins $1000! Use the code “Classic” to use the service free for a month!
