The Kicking the Seat Podcast celebrates 140 episodes with writer/director Matt Ross! His new film, Captain Fantastic, hits Chicago today, and Ian recently teamed up with fellow critics/friends David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel and Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com to interview the star of HBO's Silicon Valley and Big Love (as well as hit films like American Psycho, The Aviator, and Good Night, and Good Luck).
This warm and funny chat covers casting, parenting, and Ross' personal connection to the story of a man who tries to escape the rigors of modern-day life by fleeing to the wilderness with his family.
Also, Ian marvels at the Waldorf Astoria's ridiculously lavish paper towels; endorses Shout! Factory's new Ultra HD Blu-ray release, Rocky Mountain Express; and recaps his involvement with F This Movie's incredible "F Breast Cancer" Podcastathon, which raised over $7,000 for The Magnolia Tree Foundation last weekend!
Here's to 140 more episodes! Thanks to everyone who keeps things kicking!
