Zak and Tony joined Billy on the show to chat about their experience making the movie and bringing a quirky, indie sensibility to the classic ‘Guns and Geezers’ British crime genre in the making of it. They also discussed their favourite actors and filmmakers working today, the influence of films such as Jonathan Glazer and Denis Villeneuve on the project as well as their exciting upcoming foray into the horror genre!
