Description

"Real life screened more daringly than it's ever been before!" One of the few films whose reputation is based as much on what isn't onscreen as what is, writer Cat Bowen joins us to talk about Orson Welles' famously interfered-with follow-up to Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons. We talk what works, what's missing, and what made Francois Truffaut call the film a "mutilated masterpiece." Hosts:Michael NataleTwitterLetterboxd Tom LorenzoTwitterLetterboxd Producer:Kyle LamparTwitter Guest:Cat BowenTwitterInstagram Follow the Show:TwitterInstagramWebsite Music by Mike Natale

Since 1989, the National Film Registry has selected 25 films each year that are deemed "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant". Each week, Mike Natale (Yahoo!) and Tom Lorenzo (Men's Journal) bring on a special guest to take a look at one of the films from the registry, to get to the heart of why these films matter.
