This week, Jason and Mike welcome Dana Stevens – Slate film critic, “Slate Culture Gabfest” co-host, and author of “Camera Man,” one of our favorite books of the year – to talk about one of the most important years in cinema history. 1927 was, famously, the year that saw the release of both the first “talkie” and the first Oscar winner for Best Picture, but Dana’s top five is focused on some of the most innovative and inspiring movies of the silent era. Plus: as you’d expect from the author of “Camera Man,” not one but TWO Buster Keaton movies! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
