Welcome everyone!
Join host, Aaron Strand, as we take a historical deep dive into the life and work of cinema's greatest directors.
We skip across time, genre, and nationality to explore the greatest and wildest stories from the history of film, and use the lives of these extraordinary artists to examine the broader historical context that shaped their art.
Think 'Hardcore History' meets 'You Must Remember This'.
Between our main story episodes, we will be releasing 'One-Reelers'. These shorter episodes will feature interviews with scholars, artists and fellow movie-lovers, listener emails, or shorter historical anecdotes.
Whether you're a hardcore cinephile, a history nerd, or just someone who likes a good story, you'll love these gripping tales about the art and artists that have shaped and defined our modern world!
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
