Ranked No. 31 on the British Film Institute's Greatest Films of All Time poll is director Federico Fellini's surrealist meta-project "8 1/2" (1963).
To really do the movie's vision justice, Mike and Brian intended to podcast about podcasting for a straight hour, but their producer (the illustrious Marc Gilliland) wouldn't allow it. Instead, the two discuss why we're drawn to movies about movies and the creative process, talk the power of images to fill logical gaps in the subconscious and explore what it means to make "authentic" and "important" art.
