One of Hollywood’s great idea men joins us for a very special bonus episode of The B-Movies Podcast! This week, your hosts William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are joined by Oscar-nominated writer/director Andrew Niccol. You know his work from The Truman Show, Gattaca, S1m0ne, Lord of War, In Time and The Host, and now he’s back with a new kind of war movie: Good Kill, starring Ethan Hawke as a drone pilot who goes to war every day, and goes home to his wife and child every night with fresh emotional scars.
