About this episode
Julian Higgins is a wise, talented filmmaker beyond his years. He's also a newly minted Academy member, so now he gets to use his great taste for the greater good. He and Christy talk about growing up among academics in New Hampshire, the movies he made as a kid, studying at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles and his excellent 2015 short "Winter Light," which landed on the Oscar shortlist for best live-action short. Julian also teaches film at Emerson College, so he has lots of good advice for others who aspire to make movies. Hope you enjoy this very informative Breakfast All Day A La Carte interview.
