In this episode of More for Me and You, we sit down with indie film legend, director, author, and Slamdance co-founder Dan Mirvish... a man who’s been shaking up the film world one low-budget revolution at a time.
We dive deep into Dan’s journey from Capitol Hill speechwriter to full-blown filmmaking renegade, talk about what it really takes to make movies outside the Hollywood system, and unpack the madness behind founding a film festival that launched names like the Russo Brothers and Christopher Nolan.
Then we switch gears and do a full review of his latest film, 18½... a Watergate-era thriller with a twist of absurdity, conspiracy, and indie charm that only Dan could pull off. We discuss how he made it during a pandemic, the behind-the-scenes stories, and why you don’t need millions to make something unforgettable.
If you’ve ever wanted to break into filmmaking, create without permission, or just love a good paranoid political drama, this episode is your jam.
