Today’s guest is a revered film director: Kelly Reichardt! Kelly’s new film, First Cow, is the story of a loner cook who befriends a Chinese immigrant while traveling across 1820’s Oregon and the cow whose milk they hatch a plan to steal. Kelly joins us to talk about how a Floridian ended up making films about the Pacific Northwest, why she’s not really interested in show business, and how a person goes about casting a cow! All that and more on Bullseye!
