In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, a huge sequel and what was supposed to be the start of a franchise. The Lost World Jurassic Park was Steven Spielberg's first film as director following Schindler's List - but his interest in making it would slowly wane. In the case of Salt, it went through several directors with Tom Cruise for a long time linked with starring. And then the script made its way to Angelina Jolie. Stories of both are told in this episode. Find Simon on Twitter at @simonbrew, and the podcast can be found at @filmstoriespod. Support our work at www.patreon.com/simonbrew.
