Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.
Alex Parkinson is an Atlanta-based, Australian-born and British-groomed actor, writer, and director. He’s made recent screen appearances in Black Adam, The Wonder Years, A Jazzman’s Blues and Stranger Things. Alex has written, directed, and starred in dozens of comedy short films, including the nine-part web series Julian Assange’s Embassy Suite, which he also created, and the multi award-winning MAMILs – now the feature script Ride or Die – and Ring Fingered. He is represented by Houghton Talent and Brilliant Talent Management.
