At long last we begin Season 3 and start our journey through the filmography of Sofia Coppola, an obvious but natural follow up to our Francis Ford Coppola season. Bryan and A.J. go through Sofia’s early career from her roles in her father’s films and other productions, working as a costume designer, acting in and directing music videos, creating the frenetic and odd TV series Hi Octane, and writing and directing the short film Lick the Star (1998). We talk about the “nepo-baby” issue, how Sofia’s style as a director is evident even in the early music videos she directed. We also nerd out over Udo Kier's appearance Madonna’s Deeper and Deeper music video, and scratch our heads and marvel at the most 90’s time capsule ever, Hi Octane (1994) (available to watch on YouTube).
