Really True Fiction

Society & Culture


Welcome back to another episode of The Liberal Soul. For todays episode I was happy to be joined by Alex Cormier. Alex and I cohost a show on local radio called Full Spectrum Cinema; and in every episode we choose a movie and talk about it for an hour. Naturally, Alex seemed like a perfect guest for the podcast. We talk all about movies; why we love them and what they have meant for us in our lives. Some of the specific things we discuss are: - Some of the early films in our lives that were meaningful to us.  - Films that made us feel new things - Some of the factors that made us think about films as more than just entertainment. - How great movies leave you thinking more about them, and how more context can help you appreciate them. - Adaptations vs. original screenplays - Our thoughts specifically on David Lynch and Richard Linklater - How movies have made us think differently about the world - And how our even getting together is an example of emergence and self made community. Thank you for listening to the show. Please tell any friends who you think may enjoy it.
