When I was a child Ray Harryhausen’s films were magical, otherworldly, and scary. However, it wasn’t until I was studying films and struggling to make movies that I truly came to respect Harryhausen’s genius.
In the first episode of the Dicegeeks Tabletop RPG Show, I talk with John Walsh. John is an award-winning filmmaker, a trustee of the Ray and Diana Harryhausen Foundation, and author of the new book Harryhausen: The Lost Movies.
It was an extreme pleasure to speak with John and I hope you enjoy the interview.
