  • Chucky

    I’m amazed that the Blonde host has been getting some really cool guests but Chucky takes the cake. When will the other shows also start having these kind of guests? Great to learn things I didn’t know about Brad Dourif and nice to see him so appreciated by someone of the younger generation.

Extra Features Interview Onur Tukel about his film Wooden Hearts
Q: How did you approach the filmmaking process given the very small crew and minimal resources?
