Show Notes
Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.
In episode 149 Sam is joined by filmmaker Phil Johnston, director of The Twits, now streaming on Netflix. Phil's other work includes Wreck-It Ralph, Zootopia, and Ralph Breaks the Internet.
Phil has chosen Salesman (90 mins). An early example of a direct cinema documentary film, it was directed by brothers Albert and David Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin. The film follows four door-to-door Bible salesmen: Charles McDevitt, James Baker, Raymond Martos, and Paul Brennan.
Sam and Phil discuss his gateway into Roald Dahl, his love of the characters in Salesman, and casting Johnny Vegas as Mr. Twit.
