In conversation with Irwin Winkler: Alto Knights, Goodfellas, Rocky, Raging Bull, The Net and more

In a very special episode of the Film Stories podcast, Simon is joined by Oscar-winning producer Irwin Winkler, for an hour-long chat about his career.

He was in town to talk about his latest film as producer, The Alto Knights. However, the stories take us right to the infancy of his producing career (including Elvis Presley!). Films covered in the chat include Rocky, Rocky IV, Raging Bull, Guilty By Suspicion, The Net, Goodfellas, Busting, Revolution... the list goes on and on.

Quite the chat, this. The Alto Knights is now in cinemas. Support the podcast at www.patreon.com/simonbrew
