The Only Reason I lost 600 POUNDS... With Casey King

In this captivating podcast episode, we take a thrilling journey into the life and achievements of Lesley Paterson, a Scottish triathlete, author, screenwriter, and film producer. From conquering numerous triathlon world championships to establishing herself in Hollywood, Paterson's talent knows no bounds.

Together with her writing-producing partner, Ian Stokell, Paterson embarked on a monumental endeavor - bringing Erich Maria Remarque's anti-war masterpiece, "All Quiet on the Western Front," back to life on the silver screen. Delving into their shared passion for the novel, they realized the potential for an adaptation using modern cinematic technology. Stripping the film of typical war genre clichés, she and Stokell crafted a screenplay that showcased the true essence of human struggle, hopelessness, and apathy during the war.

Amidst financial challenges, including personal sacrifices and overcoming Lyme disease, Paterson's unwavering determination prevailed. The journey to bring this cinematic gem to life was a rollercoaster of ups and downs, with Daniel Radcliffe eager to act in the film, but the lack of funding posing obstacles.

Fast forward to the present, the landscape of the film industry has changed, with streaming services gaining prominence. The success of story-driven films like "Parasite" and WWI-themed films like "1917" has opened doors for authentic storytelling. Through grit and determination, the project started to gain traction when German director Edward Berger and producer Malte Grunert approached Paterson and Stokell with a desire to create the film in the German language.

With Netflix winning the bid, the stars aligned, and the film took flight. "All Quite on the Western Front" credited to Berger, Paterson, and Stokell, received accolades beyond measure, receiving nine Oscar nominations, and taking home 4 Academy Awards for Best International Feature, production design, score, and Cinematography and an impressive fourteen BAFTA Award nominations with 7 wins in total, including the coveted Best Adapted Screenplay.
