28. Stevee Taylor - My Movie DNA
Manage episode 423930421 series 3380972
In episode 28, Johnny talks to Stevee Taylor, a fellow Kiwi cinephile and a member of the Letterboxd crew here in New Zealand.
A couple of years ago, Stevee interviewed Johnny as part of her Masters thesis exploring how movie-watching had changed during the COVID pandemic, and it felt like the right time to return the favour and get Stevee on the show.
Johnny's talk with Stevee covers Luca Guadagnino's Challengers and its banging soundtrack score, they discuss the cinema of the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s - three powerhouse decades that sometimes get forgotten about almost 100 years on - and like addicts enabling one another, they talk at great length about David Fincher and his long-time musical collaborators Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. An absolute Fincher-fest! In fact, there’s a parallel universe where they're still talking about this subject right now!
This conversation was recorded online in late-May 2024.
