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 two absolute megastars in the industry, it's PHIL LORD & CHRIS MILLER! A truly fine double-guest sureshot as Phil and Chris connect on the line to talk all things movies (and indeed life and death), and celebrate the release of their new movie PROJECT HAIL MARY! The perfect moment to receive the duo as guests. The trio actually have a through line of the Bill Lawrence connection (who appreciators will definitely be familiar with), but on top of that, we get to hear about all thing Project Hail Mary, space loneliness, getting dark but not grim-dark, science being social, the preference of mess when it comes to film, how the film 2001 clearing the cinematic dancefloor led to total inspiration, the subgenre of Florida Swamp Horror, puppet turkey crowdwork, and the joys of getting a screen band together. Their shared mantra of "Let's make someone's favourite movie" is perfect, and something that for sure many listeners can attest to. And if all else fails, as they'll advise you, just make a movie with Ryan Gosling!
