Thoughts from your host…
Yeah, so remember last episode, when I mentioned my growing love for discussing indie films? Well, it seems like every indie lover needs to go mainstream once in a while. Maybe it’s because even a candy-coloured Pixar offering can serve up a lot to be discussed with a guest as insightful as my companion today. Or maybe it’s because when any film – big or small – brings you to tears, it deserves a conversation.
And you know the way etiquette suggests you bring something for the host when you drop by for dinner or a party? Well my guest today did just that in a podcasting sort of way. I couldn’t wait to share his little gift with you fine folks, so I’ve decided to unleash it in lieu of The White Stripes this time around.
Oh, and before I forget – as mentioned in today’s episode, here’s a link to my appearance on Jim’s show from a few years back when we discussed the films of Michel Gondry on The Director’s Club.
Further Down the Spiral Suggestions:
From Jim… “Why We Love” by Helen E. Fisher
From Ryan… The television shows of your youth

I saw THE DOOM GENERATION when it played at the TIFF Bell Lightbox a few years ago. I didn’t love the film, but I thought it was OK enough.
