Writer, director and patron saint of the ReelBlend podcast Damien Chazelle returns to discuss the making of his new film Babylon. We talk about serendipity on set and his “most beautiful” happy accident shot which didn’t make the final cut, showing movies to his kids, Babylon’s incredible ending and so much more.
