Is it film school ... or more like sitting in a bar chatting with an industry vet who's a brilliant recantour? Actually a bit of both! Informative, insightful, ... and funny as all hell, we chat with busy as all hell director Sam Irvin about his early days with Brian DePalma on THE FURY, HOME MOVIES, DRESSED TO KILL and more. We cover his voluminous output helming features for both the big and small screens over the last 25 years - his roster of actors including Rod Steiger, Heather Graham, John Heard, Michael Madsen, Linda Fiorentino, Issac Hayes, George Takei, Julie Newmar, Elvira (aka Cassandra Peterson) and others. We delve into his work as a cinema historian - stopping off to discuss his lauded biography on actress / singer / author Kay Thompson, and his co-producing of Bill Condon's Oscar winning film GODS AND MONSTERS starring Sir Ian McKellen and Brendan Fraser. We chat about his experiences as a cinema journalist, teacher at USC (where FRUITVALE STATION / CREED director Ryan Coogler attended one of his classes), and his ground breaking work in the creation of early LGBT themed films and TV series for the mainstream. Then we finish with his present status as one of Lifetime and Hallmark Channel's primo go-to helmsman in the creation of many of their popular thrillers and holiday films. Yeah, we pack a lot into this one!
Make sure you check out Sam's MY CHRISTMAS PRINCE - starring PITCH PERFECT's Alexis Knapp, Callum Alexander, Marina Sirtis, and (reunited after 40 years) HARDY BOYS / NANCY DREW's Parker Stevenson & Pamela Sue Martin. It runs throughout the 2017 holiday season on Lifetime. Check local schedules.
"And to all a good night!"
