It’s slipped a bit but still interesting
Film comment used to be a must listen for me and I think Devicka Girish has interesting insights but she tends to steer the discussion in a very negative way and what makes it worse a lot of the guests on the podcast feel very ill informed about film in general. At times, the podcast starts to sound like an obnoxious conversation between film grad students at a university screening where obscurity is prized over knowledge of film Like the person on the episode I was listening to was saying that Paul Shrader is a bad director and his only good film was “First Reformed”. And you expect to be taken seriously as a critic after making such a statement? I guess the person has never seen “ light sleeper”. Or “ Blue Collar”.

More reviews of The Film Comment Podcast
Volume and sound quality are a bit dodgy sometimes, but seem to be getting better. Content is eclectic and more off the beaten path than say something like Film Spotting. Good stuff.

I look forward to FC podcast more than any other. I hope people know how much fun it is. Topics, guests and where the conversations go are always unpredictable. Violet Lucca is perfection as host. For those who haven't checked it out yet -- FC podcast is a special one.Read full review »
