Cinema Field Guide

by Cinema Field Guide

Cinema Field Guide is a podcast that explores the film movements and microgenres that have defined and sometimes upended film history. Each season has one movement under the microscope, covering its signature features and traits, its historical context, and its key figures. Most episodes cover a film from the movement that serves as a representative sample of its style and obsessions. Cinema Field Guide is hosted by Felicia Maroni and Bryan Loomis.
