'Jackass: Best and Last' Director Jeff Tremaine
About this episode
Jeff Tremaine discusses the origins and impact of the Jackass franchise with Chris O'Falt.
Call it crass, but Jackass has proven to be one of the best made comedy series of its generation. Jeff Tremaine, the director of every single frame of Jackass, sat down with IndieWire's Chris O'Falt to reminisce on how the franchise started and how they stuck around to disgust and delight theaters twenty five years later (including the story of how Johnny Knoxville first gave him the idea for the series).
