    43 - A Different Man with Aaron Schimberg

    A legendary figure on the Screen Slate Podcast, writer-director Aaron Schimberg appears on mic for the very first time to discuss his critically acclaimed new film A Different Man, opening today in New York and Los Angeles. Hosting this episode are screen actors Jon Dieringer (Johnny Handsome, A Different Man), John Klacsmann (Ostermeier, A Different Man) and Caroline Golum (Karaoke Singer, A Different Man). In this candid discussion, the quartet discuss meeting through Brooklyn's Spectacle theater, Schimberg's challenges completing and releasing his ambitious microbudget features Go Down Death and Chained for Life, and his experiences making A Different Man on a larger scale with many of the same collaborators in front of and behind the scenes. We also declare the end of the Screen Slate podcast and speculate as to what all of our futures may hold.  Support the show The Screen Slate Podcast is supported by its Patreon members.
