The Fall Guy with David Leitch and Kelly McCormick | Picturehouse

Picturehouse’s Hope Hopkinson talks to director David Leitch and producer Kelly McCormick about their new film, The Fall Guy. 

Colt Seavers (Oscar® nominee Ryan Gosling – Barbie, Drive) is a battle-scarred stuntman who, having left the business a year earlier to focus on both his physical and mental health, is drafted back into service when the star of a mega-budget studio movie—being directed by his ex, Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt, Oppenheimer, A Quiet Place)—goes missing.

 

While the film’s ruthless producer (Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham; Ted Lasso), maneuvers to keep the disappearance of star Tom Ryder (Golden Globe winner Aaron Taylor-Johnson; Bullet Train) a secret from the studio and the media, Colt performs the film’s most outrageous stunts while trying (with limited success) to charm his way back into Jody’s good graces. But as the mystery around the missing star deepens, Colt will find himself ensnared in a sinister, criminal plot that will push him to the edge of a fall more dangerous than any stunt.

Evil Does Not Exist with Ryusuke Hamaguchi and Eiko Ishibashi | Picturehouse

Hosted by Picturehouse’s very own Sam Clements, The Love Of Cinema podcast is proudly supported by Kia. On this mini episode, Sam talks to director Ryusuke Hamaguchi and composer Eiko Ishibashi about their new film, Evil Does Not Exist, in cinemas now! 

Takumi and his daughter Hana live in Mizubiki Village, close to Tokyo.

Like generations before them, they live a modest life according to the cycles and order of nature.

One day, the village inhabitants become aware of a plan to build a glamping site near Takumi’s house; offering city residents a comfortable ‘escape’ to nature. When two company representatives from Tokyo arrive in the village to hold a meeting, it becomes clear that the project will have a negative impact on the local water supply, causing unrest.

The agency’s mismatched intentions endanger both the ecological balance of the nature plateau and their way of life, with an aftermath that affects Takumi’s life deeply.

From the director of Oscar® and BAFTA winner Drive My Car.
