From the film’s cult following that grew after playing at Sundance, to winning an Oscar for its signature song, Falling Slowly, to being adapted for Broadway, Nein reflects on all the stars that aligned for this breakout success. Plus, he brings listeners aboard “Air Force Once,” the irreverent U.S. press tour with director John Carney and actors/musicians Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. [Tune In]( Heidi Zwicker: “Hip-Hop Hopefuls” Programmer Heidi Zwicker refuses to rap, but otherwise she doesn’t hold back her “fangirl” love for Geremy Jasper’s debut feature, Patti Cake$. Following the never-give-up story of a Jersey girl’s unlikely dream of hip-hop superstardom, Zwicker recalls living out her own programming dream of connecting with Patti Cake$’s filmmaker and sharing this infectious film with audiences at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival. And her love doesn’t end there—Zwicker takes us inside the wonderful world of watching movies for a living. [Tune In]( LIKE WHAT YOU HEARD?
