Every famous director had to start somewhere right? On First Film, we take a look at feature length directorial debuts to see the origins of today's household name directors. Want to know how James Cameron went from flying piranhas to the highest grossing movies of all time? Or the bizarre, half-play comedy that Orson Welles made only three years before Citizen Kane? We’ve got those stories, and so many more right here.

Want to make the show even better? Want a chance of your favourite director being covered OR coming onto the show? That probably won't happen, right? Only one way to find out: by supporting us at https://plus.acast.com/s/first-film.
