2/21/2025
In this episode, we explore the stark yet deeply affecting world of Robert Bresson through two of his most powerful films: Mouchette (1967) and L’Argent (1983). Known for his minimalist style, nonprofessional actors, and spiritual themes, Bresson crafts haunting portraits of human suffering and redemption. We break down the tragic innocence of Mouchette, a tale of a young girl’s quiet descent, and L’Argent, his final film—a chilling meditation on money, fate, and morality. Join us as we unpack Bresson’s unique storytelling, his signature use of sound and image, and why these films remain as hauntingly relevant today as ever. https://linktr.ee/silverscreenvideo Thanks for stopping by.

Episode 261: Big Brother on the Big Screen: Revisiting 1984 (1984)

2/19/2025

We break down the film’s stark visuals, powerful performances—especially John Hurt’s portrayal of Winston Smith—and how it captures the oppressive atmosphere of Orwell’s vision. How does the movie compare to the book? What themes still resonate today? And does the film's chilling depiction of surveillance and thought control feel even more relevant in the modern age? Join us as we analyze, critique, and discuss the enduring impact of 1984. https://linktr.ee/silverscreenvideo Thanks for stopping by.
