The Movies And Me - Episode 9 - Jonathan Geffner, Deborah Twiss & Ed Altman
Episode 248
Thursday, 15 October, 2026
Welcome to the ninth episode of The Movies And Me, a podcast project of ours where in each of these episodes we sit down with a filmmaker, writer, someone who works in the film industry or just someone who is a big cinephile who just lives for movies. We talk about their creative projects and also discuss their four favourite films that have inspired them to go out and have a career in film. Or four films that have least inspired them to seek out the career they have today.On this episode, the Holmes Brothers are joined by the cast and filmmakers behind the noir comedy (a dummy noir if you will) called The Dummy Detective. A Ventriloquist Murder Mystery. Anders & Adam Holmes sit down with Jonathan Geffner, Deborah Twiss and Ed Altman to talk about their wonderful and fun film that harkens back to Film Noir pictures made during the Golden Age of Hollywood. But portrayed and told with a unique and modern twist. The film is the brainchild of Jonathan Geffner, who stars in the film as Detective Van Trillo and wrote the film's screenplay. Deborah and Ed play the characters of Chloe Lake and Elliot Black. The Dummy Detective also features Hollywood acting legend: Sean Young. The film is set in an upstate New York inn, where a killer hides amongst a group of eccentric and strange guests staying at the Inn. All have their own secrets and chequered pasts. The ventriloquist detective Van Trillo and his dummy partner Sam Suede must race against time to find and unmask the killer. The Dummy Detective is a charming film that nicely blends the genres of the mystery thriller and film noir with dark comedy. The film is available to stream and watch on various sites, like Amazon, Tubi and Plex. You can find all the info on The Dummy Detective here by clicking this link. You can follow the film on Instagram and on YouTube. Also, do give Deborah and Ed a follow as well. We hope you enjoy this episode and also we hope you seek out The Dummy Detective and give it a watch.

The film has been released digitally and also in select cinemas in the US and the UK. In Finland it was released on Apple TV after finishing its limited cinema run and was the Number 1 film for multiple weeks. You can read a review about it here on the Fangoria website.
