Manage episode 330273601 series 3294027
Jackie and Greg dig into Jean Vigo's only feature film, the highly revered L'ATALANTE from 1934. Topics of discussion include Vigo's anarchist roots, how the film subverts all other French films from the same era, the risqué sexual content, and Vigo's untimely death at age 29 from tuberculosis. Join them for their second consecutive journey down a cinematic river.
