Duo Directors’ First Movies: Requa and Ficarra & the Daniels
On the Season 6 premiere of Talking Movies with My Mom, we combine this season’s installment of our "Directors’ First Movies" series with our first episode tradition of duos to cover two pairs of directors and their first movies – John Requa & Glenn Ficarra ("I Love You Phillip Morris") and the Daniels ("Swiss Army Man"). We wade into the messiness of how keeping secrets can keep loved ones apart; why a leap of faith doesn’t always stick the landing; and the poignancy of a literal artsy-fartsy film.
