    Elisa Levine on 'Sweetheart Deal' and Life on Seattle's Aurora Avenue | Actual Facts

    We talk to filmmaker Elisa Levine about her documentary 'Sweetheart Deal.' The film tells the story of four women—Kristine, Krista, Tammy, and Sara—who navigate life on Seattle's infamous Aurora Avenue, a street packed with traffic, motels, and liquor stores, and known for being one of the city's main hubs for street-based sex work. 'Sweetheart Deal' explores the women’s complex relationships with each other, their families, and a man named Elliott, a self-proclaimed healer who offers the women food, shelter, and a place to detox in his RV. At first, Elliott seems like a savior, but as time goes on, the lines between helper and exploiter begin to blur. 'Sweetheart Deal was shot over several years in vérité style and captures the women’s humanity and resilience as they search for hope amidst the hardships of their daily lives.Actual Facts is hosted by Eric SteuerSend us a note: actualfactspod@gmail.comTheme music by Yalls: https://www.dancasey.me/'Sweetheart Deal': https://www.sweetheartdealmovie.com/MovieMaker Magazine: https://www.moviemaker.com/  Hosted on Acast.

    Jeremy Saulnier (Rebel Ridge)

    Jeremy Saulnier has done it all with Rebel Ridge. It's an action thriller Netflix hit... but also a smart indictment of a law enforcement policy almost everyone hates. And a movie for grown-ups. And a win for the kind of mid-budget movies that aren't supposed to be hits any more.But as we talk about Saulnier's rise as a filmmaker, we see that he's very much paid his dues in the micro-budget indie world.Here is Jeremy Saulnier's very frank 2014 piece on the making of his breakthrough film, Blue Ruin.
