Ep740: IndieSeen: License Tukel
Ian and Sujewa blow open 2022 with indie filmmaker extraordinaire, Onur Tukel!
In this free-flowing overview of the manic/prolific writer/director's career, the guys touch on Onur's moviemaking roots; his evolution from slacker walkie-talkies like Richard’s Wedding to ambitious existential dramedies with bona fide special effects (like 2021's one-two punch of Scenes From an Empty Church and That Cold Dead Look in Your Eyes); and his personal struggle with learning to curb his less-than-professional tendencies.
It's a revealing look at one of today's most vital and criminally overlooked artists--and we barely scratch the surface!
