The Yippie Ki-Ay. Do Cinema! is an interview series that takes a leader in their field (usually film but not always) and sits them down with someone of the same discipline whose only just had a first big break. An Oscar winner with TV's newest star, composers and their folk-rock counterparts, a thousand ways to bridge the generation gap.
Hosted by filmmaker Taylor A. Purdee and actor John Donchak, each episode is built in three acts, the young, the established, and the two together. The Yippie Ki-Ay wants to get to the bottom of what it takes to be a success, in any generation.
Each full episode showcases new music by today's artists between each act, we also feature mini-episodes that are the audio versions of our written articles. So come, hang out, leave your baby-booming millennial labels behind, and Yippie Ki-Ay Do Cinema!

Do Cinema tried to preserve a little bit of those pre oscar days by sitting down (briefly) with the best supporting actress of 1976 the perpetually bad ass. Lee Grant.

ARTICLE: Black Panther/Black Storm Trooper; Or Woke America's Inversion of Black History Month
Why would my great hero be the leader of a (pretty much) hereditary monarchy? I'm an American, I wanna vote. Why would my great hero be an isolationist? I'm an American, I wanna save the world. Why would my great hero preside over a culture that stagnated millennia ago? Americans are forged in Change, Americans of color all the more.
The racial harm of Black Panther we're not talking about. -
