FILM FORMALLY is back! This month, friend of the podcast Sophy Romvari’s films are premiering on the CRITERION CHANNEL and to mark the occasion we’ve recorded a set of commentaries for six of these films - NINE BEHIND, IT’S HIM, PUMPKIN MOVIE, NORMAN NORMAN, IN DOG YEARS, and STILL PROCESSING. We’ll be releasing one per week for the next six weeks.
To listen along, have the film ready to go and hit “play” when prompted within the episode after the introductions.
NORMAN NORMAN (2018)
A young woman grapples with the declining health of her beloved dog in this film about mortality, cloning, and Barbra Streisand.
In this episode, we discuss:
Creative “Labour” and filmmaking.
Cross-country collaboration.
Norman’s TIFF pass.
Conceptual cinema.
The opportunities afforded by non-traditional modes of production.
Sophy’s films can be seen on the CRITERION CHANNEL - feel free to sign up for a free trial if you aren’t a member.
