Filmmaker Sean Baker returns to the podcast, and his co-director for Take Out and frequent collaborator Shih-Ching Tsou joins for the first time. We talk about their origins of working together, the style they established with Take Out and how that impacted future films, the feeling of being in the Criterion Collection, the restoration process of the film in preparation for release, the supplements on the disc, and more. We also have occasional digressions where we talk about filmmakers we love such as Lee Chang-dong, David Lynch, and others.
