This week on The Awards Tour Podcast, writer-director Jeff Nichols takes us on a cruise of his stellar Certified Fresh filmography and how he's been contemplating his current release, ‘The Bikeriders,’ for the better part of two decades. The ‘Take Shelter’director, whose other credits include‘Loving,’ ‘Mud,’ and ‘Midnight Special’ has been a beloved auteur of critics and audiences since his debut in 2007 with ‘Shotgun Stories.’ This week, Nichols details how picking a 1968 non-fiction picture book about the early days of Chicago motorcycle clubs led to an incredible film about friendship, motorcycle culture, and how the quest for community can save or destroy a life. We also discuss how his love affair with art was first cultivated by his family, his scrapped Aquaman project, and why he thinks humanity is the most exciting part of superhero adaptations.
