Look out. It's only films to be buried with.

Hello and welcome to Films to Be Varied with. My name is Brett Goldstein. I'm a comedian,

an actor, a writer, a director, a Greenskeeper, and I love film. As John Lubach once said, what we see depends mainly on what we look for, which is why the imposter is such a fucked up film. Every week, I invite a special guest over. I tell them they've died, then I get them to discuss their life through the films the men the most of the previous guests include Barry Jenkins, Kevin Smith, Sharon Stone and even Clambles. But this week we have not one but two

legends of the writing craft writers and hosts of the script notes podcast, John August

and Craig Mason. You can still watch my film, all of you which I made for Will Bridges

and Imaging Putes on Apple TV. Thanks to everyone that's seen it and sent such lovely messages about it. Go ahead and watch it again, or for the first time if you'd like. We're very proud of the film and we hope that you'd like it too. Head over to the Patreon at patreon.com forward slash Brett Goldstein, where you get an extra 20 minutes with John and Craig, where talk beginnings and endings they tell me a secret you get the whole episode uncut ad free and

and Craig Mazin you might know John from writing Big Fish only one of the all time great films

identity thief. What incredible pair. Together, they have hosted script notes, one of the most

beloved screenwriting podcasts out there, which is now on its 700th and something episode.

They have a new book coming out on December 2nd. I've read the whole thing. Check it out. It's brilliant.

This was my first time meeting them as a duo. We recorded this over Zoom a couple of nights ago.

And I had such a good time. They're fucking brilliant. I really think you're going to love this one.

So that is it for now. I very much hope you enjoy episode 377 of Films to Beuried with.

Hello and welcome to Films to Be Buried with. It is I, Brett Goldstein, and I am joined today by not one, but two absolute Hollywood legends. They're two of the greatest writers to have ever walked amongst us. They've written between them, some of my favourite

films and some of my favourite TV shows. Have you seen Go? I have about a million times,

thank you very much. What about Big Fish? Yes, please. What about Chernobyl? I'll take it.

How about The Last of Us? Yeah, I'll have one of them as well. They've written everything you love and they've done a podcast and they've just read a book about it that I've read. I can't believe they're here. I rarely have two guests at once. I don't know how I'm going to do this, but here we go. Please welcome to the show. The legends that are Craig Mason and John August. Oh, wow. That was the best intro ever.

Yeah, it's such a hype up here.

Okay. Oh wow. Hello. That was the best intro ever.
