On this very special bonus episode of the One Heat Minute Productions podcast, I find an excuse to gush about BATMAN RETURNS with the powerhouse film mind of my friend Priscilla Page.

Thank you so much for the ongoing support!

FROM PRISCILLA'S PATREON

Hey! I'm Priscilla Page, and I'm a writer who's been published by Hagerty, Birth.Movies.Death., Autoweek, Polygon, Empire Magazine, The Guardian, Inside Hook, and Bright Wall/Dark Room. I love all kinds of movies but mostly cover genre, especially actioners, thrillers, sci-fi, horror, crime, pulp, westerns, and noir. These days I write a bunch about movies with cool cars and car chases. Most of my car-related film writing can be found here, and a lot of my other essays are here. 

Freelancing, as it turns out, is hard as hell. The pandemic eliminated both my primary outlet (RIP Birth.Movies.Death.) and my day job (petsitting), so it's Patreon that allows me to keep writing, to share deep dives on my favorite movies and TV series as well as some of my articles that have previously only been published in magazines... and maybe even a few interviews. Frankly, I love having the luxury of being able to write about what I want regardless of how topical my subject is, to create my own deadlines, to research as much as I need, and to avoid clickbait bullshit altogether. I get to be beholden to my actual readers, rather than what an outlet thinks their readers want. Basically, Patreon and my patrons give me (much-appreciated) security, time, and freedom. It lets me keep doing what I love to do.

So pledge what you want, and if you can't pledge anything, don't sweat it - every post will be available to patrons and non-patrons alike, for free, forever.

The Decade Project is an ongoing One Heat Minute Productions Patreon exclusive podcast looking back at the films released ten years ago to reflect on what continues to resonate and what’s ripe for rediscovery.

In this special bonus episode, I catch up with the Academy-Award-winning screenwriter of THE IMITATION GAME, Graham Moore about lobbying to write the film at a party, watch director Morten Tyldum create the effortless flow of the movie, and the 'film school' experience of watching legendary editor William Goldenberg work.

GRAHAM MOORE

Graham is a New York Times-bestselling novelist and Academy Award-winning filmmaker.

His novels — THE HOLDOUT (2020), THE LAST DAYS OF NIGHT (2016), and THE SHERLOCKIAN (2010) — have been published in 24 countries and translated into 19 languages. All three books were New York Times bestsellers. THE LAST DAYS OF NIGHT was named one of the best books of the year by the Washington Post and the Philadelphia Inquirer, while THE SHERLOCKIAN was nominated for an Anthony Award for best first novel.

His screenplay for THE IMITATION GAME (2014) won the Academy Award, WGA Award, and PEN Award, and was nominated for a BAFTA and a Golden Globe. His film directorial debut THE OUTFIT (2022) premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, was nominated for a British Independent Film Award and was named one of the 10 best films of the year by the Houston Chronicle.

His latest novel, THE WEALTH OF SHADOWS, will be published by Random House in May 2024.

Graham lives in Los Angeles with his wife and sons.
