Podcast: The Run-Through with Vogue

Description: Jordan Firstman's directorial debut, Club Kid, was the talk of Cannes this year, earning a 7-minute standing ovation and even starting a bidding war.  "I had a funny LA tarot card reader right before Cannes. I hadn't sold the movie until Cannes and she was like, "This card is A24, and this card is Neon. If you go with A24, I think there's a multi-picture deal happening," Jordan Firstman shared with Chloe on The Run-Through's podcast. The film is out Friday and features Cara Delevigne, Saturn Risin9 and a cast of extras found on Grindr and the local NYC nightlife scene. But one of the standouts is newcomer Reggie Absoholm, who plays Arlo, the long-lost ten-year-old son that Peter (played by Jordan) finds out he has. "I do stuff to, like, cringe [Reggie] out 'cause I just like it. I do feel like a dad to him sometimes, and, like, it's fun. I feel like that's what made him comfortable on set was just being able to make fun of me." In his conversation at the Vogue offices, Jordan shares why he chose to center NYC for a story about friendship and nightlife culture, a quick duo-lingo lesson of all things club culture, and being newly in love.
