Two things about this series. First, there have been both listeners and guests in the past wanting me to do certain films from iconic Russian director Andrei Tarkovsky. Personally, if I was going to tackle Tarkovsky, I wanted to do the whole thing. Second, when I spoke with Steven Warren Hill at Doctoberfest, he mentioned Tarkovsky was one of his top 3 favorite directors. After getting to know him over the past year, it just felt like stars were finally aligning to do Tarkovsky on the show.
This retrospective will drop 1 part per month. In March, we will discuss Ivan’s Childhood.
This first episode covers 3 short films that he made in college. Steven and I note his influences as well as the sort of craft he was developing and many traits being in place. We also touch on the directors and films that we recognize from these.
To keep the Diablo Cody train going, Steven also talks about how she came to Chicago TARDIS in 2006 and wrote a piece about it in her Pre-Juno launch to stardom. You can ready that here:
