Charlie Picerni is without shadow of a doubt one of the best stuntmen/coordinators and 2nd unit directors the business has ever seen.

It was such a thrill to spend some time with him on zoom, as he's not LA based these days, to chat about his thoughts on the business and how it's changed over the years. We touch on a whole bunch of topics and it's a fun listen. Enjoy.

It's hard to believe that it's 25yrs since the creation of the Taurus World Stunt Awards. Here in the UK we saw it on late night TV, 2am in the morning in the graveyard shift. But it harked back to the stuntman awards from the 1980s.

Its still going now, although its a very different animal now, but we should celebrate this remarkable venture.

They used to knock war pictures out every five minutes back in the 50s and 60s. Here's another corker. Kirk Douglas and Richard Harris battling it out on screen against the Nazi's and on set against each other...a great deal of testosterone on this particular set.

Thank God GERRY CRAMPTON was brought in to oversee the action. Some great moments....enjoy
