    Description

    Jason and Mike welcome beloved actor (the “Bill & Ted” trilogy, “The Lost Boys”) and director (“Zappa,” the upcoming “The YouTube Effect") Alex Winter to discuss his favorite movie year, 1931. It was a pivotal year for the language of cinema – silent movies, it turns out, were not dead yet – and for the increasing visibility and prominence of foreign filmmakers. Plus: headlines, early Oscar winners, and more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    “Fun City Cinema” hosts Jason Bailey and Mike Hull proudly present “A Very Good Year,” a new podcast with a simple premise: each week we invite a guest (filmmakers and actors, critics and historians, comedians and musicians) who loves movies, and ask them to select their favorite year of movies. Some pick a year from their movie-going past; some go deep into film history. Whichever the case, we spent (about) an hour talking about that year: we ask them to share their top five films of the year, and tell us why they love them; we look at the year’s news headlines, award winners, and box office champions; and we finish with a lightning round, where we talk about as many films as possible in as few minutes as possible.  “A Very Good Year” debuts this fall; our guests include Bilge Ebiri, Roxana Hadadi, Keith Phipps, Drew McWeeny, Dana Stevens, and Alex Winter.
