Film Talks A-Z
There are four kinds of film talks on . “Quick talks” cover a wide range of films, great and not so great, with short perspectives on whether and for whom a film is a good investment of time. They don’t have spoilers (but comments may). For some great films, we take the discussion further with three kinds of talks:
- “Before viewing” talks briefly introduce a great film — they don’t have spoilers.
- Watch the film, then go to the “After viewing” talk for reflections and perspectives.
- “Backstory” talks bring out things behind the film that add to its impact.
