For too long, we have focused on the actual films of the film industry: when they will open, where they will be programmed, who will see them. But now, we turn our work to something more important: alternative revenue streams, in the form of MERCHANDISING! That's right, we've got special guest BEN HOSLEY to join us to take a look at hip distributor A24's upcoming movie slate, and see how they can grow their already successful ancillary tie-in game to keep their movies in the conversation beyond the indie theatre or the multiplex. What products will be green-lit for production? Listen and find out!
