Listen Later

Hey wow, it's been a while, hasn't it? Fear not, the wait is over*. Director's Club Podcast is back with a brand new episode. With Jim on holiday, Patrick chats with Chicago film critic Brian Tallerico about world renowned Mexican director Alfonso Cuarón. In addition to covering his touchstone classics Y Tu Mama Tambien and Children of Men, we talk about a wide variety of films such as The Burning, After Earth, The Spy Who Came In From The Cold, Fast and the Furious 6, and even indie video game Proteus. What a wealth of ear candy! Yum yum! Don't get ear diabetes!

*To be replaced by a different, longer wait. Yes friends, we're sorry to announce that Director's Club will be going on a one to two month hiatus. I go into reasons why in the first 4 minutes of this episode. But we'll be back in some form some time before fall, I'm sure. And until then I imagine some kind of bonus content will be produced. So hey, it's hardly like we're going away at all! What's important to know is that divorce doesn't mean that Director's Club doesn't still love you very very much and, hey, now you get two Christmases!
