240. 4Qs with Nickolas Gilbert

Posted on by Jeff
Apparently people close their eyes when they laugh

What are the 4Q’s?

  • Name your favorite films of all time (limit 3)
  • Name a film you think is underrated
  • Name a film you think is overrated
  • Name a lesser-known film that you think people should seek out

Nickolas Gilbert brought his film “Nailed” to Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2020 and I was delighted when his film joined the Discover Indie Film TV Series on Amazon Prime Video.  Nickolas is such a busy, productive filmmaker that it took us forever to manage to get this podcast recorded.  (Mainly because we both really liked the idea of recording in person, not on Zoom.)

After the interview Nickolas answered the four questions listed above!

239. Nickolas Gilbert “Nailed”

Posted on by Jeff
Nickolas… on Zoom in June 2020. I didn’t take his pic when he witting across the table from me. Oops!

Nickolas Gilbert brought his superbly absurdist film “Nailed” to Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2020 and I knew the first time I saw his film that it would be wonderful to have it join the Discover Indie Film TV Series on Amazon Prime Video.  I was delighted when “Nailed” joined season 4, but Nickolas is such a busy, productive filmmaker that it took us forever to manage to get this podcast recorded.  (Mainly because we both really liked the idea of recording in person, not on Zoom.)

We finally managed to get into the same room and it was great!  Nickolas is a smart, active and inspiring filmmaker.
