Robert Zemeckis' Here is, uh, here- a movie told from Told via a single static camera angle. In celebration, Sage grabs his old film history professor Dr. Porter to discuss a similar Swedish film he shows in film school. Join us on our film school bullshit for a look at the philosophy behind Deep focus, why on earth anyone would devote their life to telling stories this way, and how sometimes your house is a train. Plus: the difference between Nordic and American Andersons!
Sure, we could have revisited a more obvious, popular movie like Forrest Gump or even Cast away, but its too late now and we didn't.
Dr. Porter is a film history professor at Eastern Washington University and a programmer at Spokane International Film Festival (SPIFF)
