“Every single movie I’ve made has basically been about a bunch of young men making a movie,” said Johnson, this week’s guest on the Filmmaker Toolkit podcast. “Whether that’s the kitchen at the Flagship (‘Tony’), or it is the engineers at Research In Motion (‘BlackBerry’), or Matt and Owen in ‘The Dirties,’ or our CIA crew embedded at NASA in ‘Operation Avalanche,’ or Matt and Jay trying to get a show at the Rivoli (‘Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie’), I’m constantly just reliving the feeling of being in film school, trying to figure out how to create myself and become an adult.”
