Hooksexup editor Peter Smith got to sit down with directors Garth Jennings and Nick Goldsmith. The duo made a name for themselves helming music videos for Blur, Pulp and R.E.M….not to mention a little film called The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Their latest, Son of Rambow, “follows schoolboy Will (newcomer Bill Milner, an instantly endearing tangle of scrawny limbs), raised by his mother in a conservative religious sect, the Plymouth Brethren. His upbringing has kept him away from all media, so when his troublemaking classmate Lee Carter shows him a bootleg copy of Sylvester Stallone's First Blood, his world is forever changed, and he and Lee Carter set off to make their own First Blood sequel — Son of Rambow."
The guys talk rehearsal, Rambo, and storytelling rapture, right here.
