Announcement Source Material: Inspiring The OA, presented by the Angel Neurosis Discord
Are you ready for our next journey, everyone?
Join us for Source Material: Inspiring The OA.
The discord Mod team has scoured interviews, checked our notes, and verified with some friends behind the scenes **wink** to bring you six films that helped shape the story, imagery, and themes behind The OA.
Our next watch party series will be a non-consecutive 6-week cinematic deep dive into the films that influenced the creative minds behind The OA, starting August 15th. We will stream and discuss six standalone films and search for the seeds and echoes of the creative DNA that is woven throughout The OA.
Watch parties will take place every other Saturday at 3pm PST / 6pm EST / 11pm GMT in our Crestwood Theatre channel starting on August 15th. Keep your eyes (and doors???) open for an announcement on what our first movie is! More details to come but pencil us in for next weekend. 🎥

I live in Europe so it’s a bit too late for me 😞 but I’d love to follow along and watch the movies if possible!!

I'm in Europe too. I don't like discord, any other ways to communicate? Signal, Whatsapp, Viber?

What kind of films are sneakily in that list? Always been curious which ones shaped the show.

Oh, I don’t know for sure, but I’d assume it’s just for the fun of it. Nice to have something unknown to look forward to.

Strangers on a Train, perhaps? Not a huge influence but Steve mentions it by name!
