Filmspotting has been making radio for almost 10 years as amateurs, so Adam and Josh should have an insight or two on the folks who make their Top 5 Performances by Non-Professionals — people who made a prominent acting debut without the benefit of experience (or maybe with the benefit of no experience). Plus, a review of David Gordon Green’s latest, JOE, starring Nicolas Cage, Tye Sheridan and scary-good non-pro Gary Poulter.
