Open To Criticism
Wendy Lloyd
If you ever watch films or read film reviews, this Independent Podcast Awards twice nominated show is for you. Because what you get to see onscreen is directly impacted by what critics value and promote. Film critic Wendy Lloyd investigates how we talk about movies, who gets to do it and why it matters with fellow critics and social commentators. #MeToo, BLM and Times Up mean we're finally seeing improved diversity in film - from the stories being told to onscreen representation. But significant power imbalances remain - as highlighted each year during Awards season. So how might film criticism understand its own role in these inequalities and better serve ALL film fans? Because whilst historically marginalised voices are now coming through in criticism, significant inequalities remain - including who gets the top critic jobs and which stories - and therefore films - are valued most. Join me in this series of thought provoking and lively conversations, that builds on research on inequalities in criticism I carried out for my Masters degree.
