    Antoine Fuqua (Acclaimed Director & Producer) on his Extraordinary Path, Filmmaking, Audience Testing, & More

    Antoine Fuqua (Acclaimed Director & Producer) on his Extraordinary Path, Filmmaking, Audience Testing, & More

    Kevin is joined by acclaimed filmmaker, Antoine Fuqua.

    Antoine Fuqua, director and producer, is known for his work on the films Training Day, The Magnificent Seven, and The Equalizer.

    Kevin Goetz sits down with renowned Hollywood director Antoine Fuqua. They discuss Fuqua's extraordinary path from the tough streets of Pittsburgh to directing blockbusters and working with some of the greatest actors of our time. Fuqua opens up about his encounter with gun violence at age 15, which shaped his artistic style and pursuit of cinematic realism. He shares behind-the-scenes stories about working with Denzel Washington in Training Day, the value he gleans from test screenings, and his upcoming Michael Jackson biopic. Fuqua also provides insight into his intense focus on actors, self-criticism, and mission to keep evolving as a director who can capture the human condition under pressure.

    Childhood Shooting (2:26)
    Fuqua recalls being randomly shot at age 15 while running an errand in Pittsburgh. The traumatic event gave him a visceral sense of violence and mortality. He remembers the shooting like a vivid movie scene engraved in his mind.

    Acting Process (11:34)
    Fuqua explains his deep reverence for actors. Fuqua believes in giving actors space to use their own creative process and not interfering in their "magic."

    “In the Moment Filmmaking” with Denzel Washington (14:18)
    Fuqua shares a story from Training Day when he was so absorbed watching Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke improvise in character that he forgot to call "cut." He stresses filmmakers must sometimes "get out of their own way" and just feel unscripted moments unfold.

    Test Screenings (16:48)
    The pair discuss test screenings, and Fuqua shares that even though he is tortured by the test screening process, he considers it a blessing. Fuqua discusses his love for the audience and how the feedback exposes blind spots and forces him to see the film through their eyes.

    Michael Jackson Biopic (21:56)
    Fuqua reveals details on his upcoming Michael Jackson biography produced by Graham King. He was drawn to the project by Jackson's global impact and complicated life. Fuqua aims to look beyond tabloid headlines to capture the man underneath.

    Men Under Pressure (27:24)
    Fuqua discusses men under pressure, a major theme in his filmmaking, and how he is drawn to telling stories about people making tough choices that test their morals and define their character.

    Tune in for a fascinating discussion that provides rare insight into the mindset of visionary director Antoine Fuqua. From his rough upbringing to directing actors like Denzel Washington, Ethan Hawke, Will Smith, and Jake Gyllenhaal, he explains how his background shaped his directorial style and gift for portraying the human condition.

    Episode 83: Something in the Dirt & Emancipation (w/ Guest Host Rachel Ho)

    Greetings, programs, and welcome to a very special episode of the show.  This week (and next!) Simon is on holiday, so Matthew will be joined once again by our friend Rachel Ho of Exclaim.ca, ThatShelf.com, POV Magazine, and The Globe and Mail! 

    We're diving into an indie darling and a big, oscar-bait action spectacle this week.  First, Benson & Moorhead's Something in the Dirt, which is finally in release after premiering all the way back at Sundance at the beginning of 2022.  Then we move on to Emancipation, Will Smith's first big release since "the slap".  One of these is quite good, and the other not so much.  Listen to find out which!

    To find streaming links to both movies, as well as our ratings and all of our other content, check out this episode's homepage at AwesomeFriday.ca

    Are People Ready to Forgive Will Smith?

    Are People Ready to Forgive Will Smith?

    After laying very low since the Oscars and his slap-heard-round-the-world, Will Smith is finally talking. He sat down with Trevor Noah on “The Daily Show” last night for his first major TV interview since Slapgate to promote his new film, “Emancipation.” It was there that he opened up about that fateful night in March and had an interesting take on what exactly triggered his behavior. Will also talked about how he’s worried that “Emancipation” - and everyone who worked on it - will be punished for his huge lapse in judgment. So we’re wondering how this film will do, and what that will mean for Will’s career?

    Hate Cast #12: Terroristen sind in "Olympus Has Fallen" nicht das Schlimmste

    Hate Cast #12: Terroristen sind in "Olympus Has Fallen" nicht das Schlimmste
    In ihrem Love Cast zu White House Down haben es Souli und Stu bereits erwähnt, dass sie nicht viel von Olympus Has Fallen - Die Welt in Gefahr halten. Jetzt ist es an der Zeit, dass unsere Streiter für das Gute und Schöne Tacheles reden und klar machen, warum sie Gerard Butlers ersten Kampfeinsatz als Mike Banning ziemlich katastrophal und fragwürdig finden. Es geht um Folter, Pathos und einen schlechten Kameragag. Viel Spaß.

    4: The Magnificent Seven

    4: The Magnificent Seven
    Joe Darnell is joined by our friend and special guest Chad Hopkins to review ‘The Magnificent Seven’, directed by Antoine Fuqua. Like other modern Western remakes ‘True Grit’ and ‘3:10 to Yuma’, a star-infused gunslinging adventure packs lots of thrills. Maybe lite on realism? Doesn’t matter, it makes up for it in old-fashioned heroics and horseback rides.
