About this episode
PUBLIC VERSION. Filmmaker Philippe Mora (THE BEAST WITHIN, MAD DOG MORGAN, HOWLING II: …YOUR SISTER IS A WEREWOLF, HOWLING III, COMMUNION) joins Adam, Joe, and Arwen in the ArieScope studio to discuss his long and incredible career. Born in France and raised in Australia, Mora's artistic journey has been so remarkable that you need to hear it to believe it! From being the godson of legendary mime performer Marcel Marceau (also known as "Bip the Clown")… to becoming roommates with a VERY famous rock star who would wind up helping to finance his first feature film… to hiring an actual crazy person to play a crazy person in his debut feature TROUBLE IN MOLOPOLIS (1969)… to how "steak tartare" helped get him his first American directing gig… to the very famous sci-fi costumes that mistakenly showed up on the set of HOWLING II and wound up being used in the film… Mora's story is one of the most fascinating, hilarious, and inspiring that we've heard in over 11 years of this weekly podcast so far. You're going to absolutely LOVE this conversation!
