This episode of Cult and Culture kicks off a group of podcasts recorded and centered around Oak Cliff Film Fest, an independent film festival located in Dallas, Texas. Here, Luke and Justin talk with Ashton Campbell, the co-director of the operation. They talk about the unique location for the festival, a theater with an infamous history: where Lee Harvey Oswald was captured. They also discuss what makes the festival memorable for attendees as well as those participating in it, from yoga classes being offered to staff, to the thoughtful curation of films chosen and bands performing, the result is a sense of community and buy-in that makes people invested in coming back year after year. Campbell laments what AI has become and the threats it may pose as well as where it may be practical, and shares the tongue-in-cheek "analog approach" the team takes to create their promotion-- this year featuring "Nicole Kidmannequin" and the overall theme of "REAL MOVIES FOR REAL MOVIE PEOPLE."
