The visionary filmmaker behind the psychological thriller "Fluxx" (starring Tyrese Gibson and Shelley Hennig) reveals how his childhood love of movies laid the groundwork for his directorial career.The conversation takes an intimate turn as Murphy discusses how parenthood has reshaped his creative perspective.

"But now, since I've had children, it's really curbed my ego and now I'm working for another vice, which is to provide for my kids."Whether you're an aspiring filmmaker, a cinema enthusiast, or simply appreciate stories of creative persistence, Murphy's experiences illuminate the evolving landscape of film production and distribution. Catch "Fluxx" in select theaters now or on VOD beginning August 2nd, and watch for his upcoming projects including the Western "Blood Behind Us" featuring Jamie King and Michael Madsen.Support the show
