The 15:17 To Paris (2018) with John Semley
Listen now
Description
Life has been catapulting us toward this moment...the episode where we lose our minds singing the praises of THE 15:17 TO PARIS with returning guest, writer and Slow Learners Podcast host John Semley! Join us for several hours of exaltant analysis of Clint Eastwood's 2018 avant garde docudrama, starring the real guys who really tackled a heavily armed shirtless man on a train. We really get into it here, folks: millennial masculinity amid the bleak futurelessness in which we've all spent most of our lives, re-enactments/non-professional actors in cinema history, and the transcendental quality of Dutch nightclubs. Listen up or we'll kick you out of Air Force sewing class! Topics include: Clint as optimistic Hill/McBride, trains, Clint making some big and unequivocally not-lazy choices, Ian invokes Bresson a bunch, millennial grammar, the supporting cast of sitcom players, major breakthoughs on Clintertextuality, and more!
