To celebrate the release in the US of the new boxing film Kid Snow, which opens this weekend, we had the pleasure of sitting down with the star of the film to find out more.
KID SNOW was recently nominated for an AACTA Award (Australia’s equivalent to the Oscars) for Best Actress for his co-star, Phoebe Tonkin (The Originals), and hits US theaters on February 14th following its premiere at the Sydney Film Festival.

We also talk about the social media impact of The Perfect Couple’s opening dance scene, something many people have tried to emulate…
