    A wonderful relaxed style, that is great to listen too and clearly engaging for contributors; but still weighty and smart with a profound industry knowledge.

  • Loving this podcast!

    Loving this podcast so far! I’m about 10 episodes deep and don’t plan on stopping.

    The conversations are informative but also relaxed which makes them such a good listen. I’m glad there’s so many built up as I have plenty content to work through.

  • The Best Podcast For Actors By An Actor!

    As an up and coming actor from Britain, making my way in the film industry from Vancouver, Canada, I find ‘A Life In Film’ to be an amazing resource on what it takes to make it in film & tv.

    I really enjoy the way Elliot and his guests are never afraid to talk about the realities of being an actor, and the many periods we go through without steady work. They never fail to provide inspiring stories of how they got to where they are today, and how listeners can hope to follow a similar path.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What's Your Story - Actress Mariana Treviño #111
Q: How did you get involved with the Apple TV project and what was the audition process like?
She explains that there were several callbacks, culminating in a chemistry read in LA that confirmed the fit with the cast and the project, and she felt the tone and writing aligned with her comedic sensibilities.
DAVID DASTMALCHIAN: His Big Break, Breaking Through his Comfort zone & Graphic Novel 'Through' #117
Q: How did the graphic novel Through come about?
The idea grew over two decades inspired by Henry Darger and the concept of inner universes; a collaboration with editors and Simona Wolfe helped unlock the project, and personal struggles fueled its development as a long-form, artful work rather than a typical comic book.
DAVID DASTMALCHIAN: His Big Break, Breaking Through his Comfort zone & Graphic Novel 'Through' #117
Q: What was the process like getting that role in Prisoners?
After a pivotal misstep with a last-minute offer, he pursued auditions despite hardship, then connected with Denis Villeneuve through prior workshop exposure; the audition and subsequent casting marked a major turning point.
DAVID DASTMALCHIAN: His Big Break, Breaking Through his Comfort zone & Graphic Novel 'Through' #117
Q: You've had such an incredible career so far, and I'd love to wind back and ask, where did that passion of performance come from?
David describes a lifelong pull to performance rooted in early memories of stage experiences, family moments around the Muppets, and a deep love for storytelling that began in childhood, gradually shaping his artistry and resilience.
ROBERT ENGLUND: on Freddy Krueger & Finally getting his Star on the Hollywood walk of Fame! #119
Q: When Freddy Vs Jason came about, was there trepidation about bringing the franchises together?
The guest explains that trepidation mainly came from fans who worried about purity of the franchises, but he argues that fans' curiosity about such matchups is longstanding and that the collaboration was a natural extension of that curiosity rather than exploitation.
