In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide.

We're chatting about some wonderful films with some terrific filmmakers this week on BEHIND THE LENS, starting with director/co-writer ALLAN UNGAR talking about his new film, the action buddy comedy road trip, LONDON CALLING. Then in the second half of the show, director/co-writer CHRISTOPHER LEONE and writer/former paramedic PATRICK PIANEZZA are on hand for their new comedy/dramedy, CODE 3. Directed by Allan Ungar with script by Omer Levin Menekse, Allan Ungar, and Quinn Wolfe, LONDON CALLING stars Josh Duhamel, and along with Josh is the scene-stealing Jeremy Ray Taylor, Aidan Gillen, Arnold Vosloo, Rick Hoffman, and Daniel Lasker, who is a solid standout here. In this exclusive interview, you'll hear Allan discuss LONDON CALLING, highlighting the dynamic between Tommy and Julian, played by Josh Duhamel and Jeremy Ray Taylor. He praises cinematographer Alexander Chinnici for the film's visual grammar, particularly the use of light and lens in South Africa, as well as the collaboration of his production team, including production designer Warren Gray, art director Kerry Von Lillienfeld, and set decorator Roberto Bassi, and their successful recreation of London and Los Angeles in Cape Town. Then, we're coming in hot with sirens roaring and lights flashing thanks to director and co-writer Christopher Leone and writer/former paramedic Patrick Pianezza and their new film CODE 3. Directed by Christopher Leone, CODE 3 is a high-octane action dramedy that follows a world-weary paramedic on his final 24-hour shift as he trains his eager but inexperienced replacement. What begins as a routine night quickly unravels into a chaotic, citywide odyssey, testing their endurance, instincts, and sense of humor as they race from one emergency to the next. Blending heart, irreverent comedy, and edge-of-your-seat action, CODE 3 offers a gritty, behind-the-scenes look at the life of first responders, where every call could mean disaster or redemption. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
