Writer and director James Gray returns to the Filmmaker Toolkit, and as always it's delightful to listen to him discuss cinema. Gray shares how "Paper Tiger" began as a sequel to his last film "Armageddon Time," what single piece of directing Adam Driver needed to unlock his character, and what he hopes audiences take away from this family crime drama.
