Hard Eight (1996)

Tim and Andrew discuss the 1996 drama, Hard Eight, currently streaming on Amazon Prime. Why? Because Philip Seymour Hoffman was the king scene stealer. He could come in for a day and take your film from 3.5 stars to 4 with one scene. How did PSH and PTA meet? What was the drama surrounding PTA and the distribution of the film? Why does Phil's hair look like that?! All that and more in this eighth episode of "That's That: A Philip Seymour Hoffman Retrospective".

This episode's guest is "That's That" regular, filmmaker, and One County Film cofounder, Andrew Paul Davis. You can follow him on Instagram and Twitter. Check out the music video for his new song "Politician".
