Next up on We Need to Talk About Oscar, with A Quiet Place: Day One hitting VOD, we are thrilled to welcome Michael Sarnoski, the director behind the movie. You might also know his debut feature from three years ago, Pig starring Nicholas Cage. In this captivating episode, Áron had the opportunity to talk with Michael about his journey from indie filmmaking to the world of a studio blockbuster. Michael shares his views about the challenges and exciting opportunities that come with joining a major franchise and working with larger budgets. Furthermore, of course Frodo the cat sparks an amusing discussion about the joys and trials of having animals on set, at the end of which our host even pitches a fun idea for Michael’s next project.

We really hope you watched Hulu’s Under the Bridge (if not, honestly, what are you doing?!), cause this time we have the absolute pleasure of welcoming actress Vritika Gupta (0:37), who plays Reena Virk, and director Kevin Phillips (19:23), who directed episodes 2 and 8, to the show.
In their conversation, Áron and our two fantastic guests cover topics like career decisions, the challenges of playing and directing teenagers and their flaws, or the responsibility and weight of telling Reena’s story.

It's been about a week since the series (or season?) finale of Julio Torres' Fantasmas aired. Whether or not there will be a follow-up to these six episodes, we have another spooky treat for you: our chat with the show's production designer, Tommaso Ortino!
In this episode Tommaso and Áron go down the rabbit hole of building sets on a stage, blending the projections with the physical (previously discussed in our interview with cinematographer Sam Levy), and he even gives a small update on Todd Solondz's Love Child.
