BTL Radio Show - 09/21/2026 with guest GEOFFREY MOORE talking KNIGHTFALL...and "The Old Man" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I am thrilled to bring you this week’s BEHIND THE LENS and this week’s featured interview because we’re talking with Moore. Geoffrey Moore. There is an inevitability to Geoffrey Moore playing a British spy. He knows it. We know it. And when asked whether he had any trepidation about stepping into the role of MI5 agent Hugh in KNIGHTFALL given that his father happened to be Sir Roger Moore, Geoffrey doesn't hesitate. “No. Money is the answer.” The laugh, the wit. That sums up Geoffrey Moore. Witt

Welcome back to another week of BEHIND THE LENS! Hope you had a wonderful Labor Day weekend. I was going to air director Scott Waugh’s interview on RUNNER starring Owen Wilson and Alan Ritchson today, but given that the review has been out, my interview feature with Scott is also out, and there’s so much positive traction on the film already (I’m so thrilled you guys are loving it!!), that I’m switching things up and bringing you PADRAIC “PAT” McKINLEY and his new film THE WEIGHT! What a film! D

This week on BEHIND THE LENS, I've got an interesting and fun interview for you as I talk with director KEVIN MACDONALD about his new film, the psychological thriller THE RUNNER. Plus, it will tease you a bit before THE RUNNER releases on September 2nd on Prime Video! But before I get started, how many of you hit the theatre this weekend to see BUDDY? If you haven’t, run, don’t walk to the nearest theatre for this sick, twisted, hilariously funny, unexpectedly thoughtful, and gleefully drenched

Read excerpt
I’m very excited to bring you this week’s BEHIND THE LENS Radio Show and my exclusive conversation with director BEN GREGOR talking about THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE, a film, like the book on which it’s based, that keeps the child inside of us alive with fun and fantasy and good storytelling that speaks to family, imagination, and risk and is a shared language to us all. I’ve been under embargo on this one until today, and I’m so happy I can bring you this fun and interesting interview. Adapted from
