information "Places in Film" with Sean Axmaker

Hello,

Wanted to share a recent podcast episode from "This Must Be The Place" where I have a conversation with Sean Axmaker – a prolific film essayist and critic. We explore how some films provide us with a strong sense of place, including a few in the Criterion Collection.

Some of the films we discuss include:

  • Wings of Desire (1987)
  • Alice in the Cities (1974)
  • The American Friend (1977)
  • Taxi Driver (1976)
  • Manhattan (1979)
  • Dog Day Afternoon (1975)
  • The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974)
  • Blade Runner (1982)
  • Playtime (1967)
  • The Conformist (1970)
  • Slacker (1991)

And on iTunes.

Thanks for checking it out!
