In this month’s issue, our front and back cover story is with actor Michael C. Pitt (Boardwalk Empire, Asphalt City, Reptile) and Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire, Expats, House of Gucci) who makes his directorial debut in Day of the Fight. With Michael playing Mike Flannigan and Jack directing, producing, and writing, this film which also stars Joe Pesci, Steve Buscemi, and Ron Perlman to name a few - this film which centers on boxing, redemption, and the future is one that should be seen! We had the pleasure of speaking with both of them about the film, its themes, the power of cinema, and more!
