Podcasters, filmmakers, and artists Jordan Fish, Ray Tintori, and Z Behl join us to further discuss DESIGN FOR LIVING and disrupt the flow of the podcast much like the film in question disrupts the format of the romantic comedy! We cover the film’s structure, production design, relationship with branding and commerce, Gilda’s identity as “matron of the arts”a, Lubitsch’s camera blocking, draw allusions to, of all films, Robert Altman’s THREE WOMEN and David Fincher’s THE KILLER. Edited by Griffin Sheel We have a Discord! Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify NEXT WEEK: Eric Dienstfrey joins us to discuss the sound technology behind THE MERRY WIDOW.
