Brett Bachman

Published: Sept. 20, 2021, noon

Today is a very special episode in honor of the recent MANDYversary. We sit down with Brett Bachman…a Film Editor and a guy I like to call the Walter Murch of SpectreVision. His credits are many, but to name a few — RAZE, COOTIES, BITCH…the psychedelic Barbarian Opera MANDY, THE COLOUR OUT OF SPACE, and most recently, the new critically acclaimed film PIG — also starring Nicolas Cage and Alex Wollf in a completely unexpected film that’s as much a meditation as it is a movie.  We talk about how Brett started out making videos of barnyard animals, what he learned at the AFI, and how he chooses projects based on the script and director, but also on the journey of a making a film versus the end result.  It’s a great conversation with a funny, passionate filmmaker who also happens to be a genuinely great dude.
