BEST OF SEASON 1 - MIKE FIGGISMike Figgis is an iconic film director, screenwriter, and composer. Figgis began his career as a musician. Growing up he was exposed to music early as his father was a jazz musician. In the late 60’s he started out playing trumpet and guitar in the People Band and is audible in their first record (produced by Charlie Watts) in 1968. He played keyboard with Bryan Ferry in an R & B band, Gas Board and then moved to London to study music and became involved in the fringe theatre group, before forming his own company, The Mike Figgis Group, in 1980.After over 20 years as a musician, he got involved in theater including experimental theater and performance art using film rear projection in his presentations. He bought a 16mm film camera and started shooting film and began cultivating his path to become a filmmaker. Figgis made his feature film debut with the low budget Stormy Monday in 1988. The film earned him attention as a director who could get interesting performances from established Hollywood actors. His first American film was Internal Affairs, which helped to revive the career of Richard Gere. This was followed by his next Hollywood feature, Mr. Jones, was misunderstood by the studio, who attempted to market the downbeat story as a feelgood film, resulting in a box office flop. Figgis poured his disenchantment with the film industry into Leaving Las Vegas, which starred Nicholas Cage and Elisabeth Shue, which earned Figgis Academy Award nominations for Best Directing and Best Screenplay. He followed this up with the romantic drama One Night Stand and The Loss of Sexual Innocence. ALL ACCESS + CLIPS + FULL EPISODES + SUBSCRIPTIONhttps://linktr.ee/thepodmatrixFOLLOW us on SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: @thepodmatrixnyc https://www.instagram.com/thepodmatrixnyc/Linkedin: THEPODMATRIX https://www.linkedin.com/company/thepodmatrix/Facebook: @thepodmatrixABOUT THE PODCAST“Conversations with Charlie” is a podcast about the people that make up the film, broadcast and entertainment industry.

BEST OF SEASON 1 - MARKUANN SMITHIn this podcast we talk with Markuann about his early life growing up on the streets of Far Rockaway in Queens, working in the Hip Hop and R & B world going on the road with his brother, Father MC, and in recent years how he came up with the idea to create the “Godfather of Harlem” series on Epix. Markuann was born in Harlem, New York, Markuann spent a majority of his early life in Queens, attending Far Rockaway High School and, later on, Garden State Academy. As a child, growing up on the rough streets of Far Rockaway in Queens he found refuge at home watching a lot of films. This exposure nurtured his love for the craft of film, as he considered those movies an escape from his reality. From his life on the road with Father MC, he spent 16 years working at BET and during that time he became very close with his Godmother, Margaret Johnson who was the granddaughter of the famed Harlem gangster, Ellsworth Raymond Johnson aka Bumpy Johnson. It was through listening to the stories Margaret Johnson told him that he came up with the story that is the basis for the series, “Godfather of Harlem”.Markuann is very honest about his bumpy road to success. His mission in life is to follow his passion not his pension while never giving up because failure is not an option. His journey is an inspiration for all. ALL ACCESS + CLIPS + FULL EPISODES + SUBSCRIPTIONhttps://linktr.ee/thepodmatrixFOLLOW us on SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: @thepodmatrixnyc https://www.instagram.com/thepodmatrixnyc/markuanngodfatherofharlemgodfather-of-harlemLinkedin: THEPODMATRIX https://www.linkedin.com/company/thepodmatrix/Facebook: @thepodmatrix
