Summary

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the award winning screenwriter, playwright and author PETER STRAUGHAN! Fresh off Peter's Oscar win (and multi nominations) for Conclave, here's a rare chance to catch him in non-promo mode and in post-win glow mode. It's a really great one, a free and easy, breezy and fun catch up with these two, as you get to hear about all sorts of cinematic rocket fuel for Peter as well as a ton of awesome behind the scenes goodies. Expect gems involving his gravitation towards certain stories and themes, awards season chaos, to be on set or not to be, how the subconscious escapes through writing, wallpaper secrets and muddy elves. And of course so much more. Upper tier Patreon members get a chance to stare at this particular G.O.A.T. too in the video version so consider that option if it takes your fancy. I just wanted to crowbar that pun in. That's on me. Enjoy! Video and extra audio available on Brett's Patreon!

As Arro Kwan once said, silence is its own kind of conversation, which is why I still think a quiet place should have ended with someone whispering, fucking hell, that was stressful. Every week, I invite a special guest over. I tell them they've died, and I get them to discuss life through the films of the men the most of them. Previous guests include Barry Jenkins, Kevin Smith, Sharon Stone and even Bled Blambles. But this week we have the Oscar-winning playwright, screenwriter and author, Mr Peter Strawn.
