    Matt and Travis from The Complete Podcast return to the show. Travis had worked on Castle Rock and has been enjoying watching the reaction as it unravels, so we spent some time talking about our impressions. We talk extensively about the Dietrich and Sternberg boxset, speculate whether the Wong Kar Wai set is ever really happening, talk some Charles Burnett, Orson Welles, John Ford, Cocteau, Resnais, Schrader, and plenty more.

    I am a somewhat educated Criterion dork, with a History and Film Studies bachelor's degree and plenty of self-education over the years. My tastes are all over the map. Probably my favorite is 1930s French Poetic Realism, but I like everything from noir, to animation, to horror, westerns, and modern film. Usually I prefer film that challenges and requires something of the viewer.
