This episode features a joyful conversation with Dave Lewis talking about making the Cinemallennials podcast, his love of movies and history, and his Irish-American heritage. We go into why Cinemallennials focuses on both millennials and the classical era of Hollywood film-making and what is gained from keeping older films alive, including forming better understandings of more contemporary works of cinema, for example Denis Villeneuve’s Dune (2021). We also talk about the importance of unearthing erased film histories with mention of early African-American film pioneer Oscar Micheaux.
