Jeffry Ramirez: Hollywood's Friendliest Gatekeeper
Show notes
Russell Stoner and Ashley Brooke Cohen have their first podcast guest, Jeffry Ramirez. You might know him for his Letterboxd reviews or as the face of AMC Lincoln Square in New York City. This is the other side of Hollywood that no one is talking about, the people that actual work at the movie theaters. We also talk about how Ashley was featured in Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day and how that movie could have been a lot better if more back actors were like her. Also we discuss the hype around Backrooms and Obsession but also other lesser known (and better) horror movies of the year. If you think movie theaters are dying, this episode should give you hope that many people still love seeing films on the biggest screens possible. This episode is for film nerds and those that want to learn more about what really goes into showing a film in theaters. We dive deep on 3D, IMAX, IMAX in 3D and how Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" already had sold out screenings a whole year in advance. Jeffry shares stories of being a greeter at AMC, his favorite films, and which films have inspired him to make write his own screenplay.
