  • Where are the women?

    Overall, I’ve enjoyed this podcast and would recommend it to anyone who wants a variety of in-depth perspectives on cinematically significant titles. I like the fact that David brings on younger voices who are often seeing the 70s films for the first time, or at least weren’t born when they were first released. However, there is a noticeable dearth of women’s perspectives, which in several cases (Klute, Straw Dogs, The Last Picture Show to name a few) leave a gaping hole in the analysis.

  • Best Criterion podcast out there

    I’m a fan of the Criterion Collection and have about a dozen or so titles in my home collection. So I’m always interested in podcasts that focus on the series. Unfortunately, most are just of the “two guys blowing smoke” variety, often ill-informed and merely expressing like or dislike. That doesn’t tell me anything. David respects the listener enough to provide historical context, where a movie fits in its cinematic tradition, and informed biographical information about directors, actors, scree... more

  • Simply unbearable

    I am stunned by how often your guests do not like these great works of art. The two episodes that have pushed me beyond my limits were “Death in Venice” and “Klute”. I find it so disappointing that there are hours of in-depth analysis of many great films and yet you do not select people that appreciate them. Instead you select shallow and idiotic critics that are self-absorbed. David I know you put a lot of work and devotion into these podcasts but I really cannot bear to listen to another one.

  • One of the best Criterion Specific Movie Podcasts

    I love the chronological format, and David is a mad genius. I feel like I am getting some pretty good insight into this fraught time (late 60s), which also give me insight into our current time. Thanks David! Also, thanks for having on Jordan Essoe, who is just dreamy.

  • David is a true inspiration.

    I’ve known David for almost ten years now and he is truly inspirational in his commitment to the project of reviewing the films of the Criterion Collection in chronological order. This latest iteration of his project is a real treat for anyone looking to expand on their knowledge and understanding of the history of cinema.
