Millie De Chirico got her start in the film and television industry at Turner Broadcasting in the programming department. From there, she programmed “TCM Underground,” which broadcast cult classics and late-night films. These days, she co-hosts the podcast “I Saw What You Did,” dissecting films every episode and is teaching about film as an adjunct professor. Millie shares exactly what a film programmer does, why she loves cult cinema, and why she wrote her book “TCM Underground: 50 Must-See Films from the World of Classic Cult and Late-Night Cinema.”
