Kinotomic
A Movie Podcast that bridges the cine nostalgia of the Golden Age of Hollywood with the explosive modernity of Contemporary Cinema. Join Dani and Nick as they discuss 2 carefully picked films, unified by a common theme. Dani's suggestion based on her particular area of expertise, The Golden Age of Hollywood, from the silent 1920s through to the revolutionary 1960s. Nick's suggestions are movies from the New Hollywood era of the 70s through to the current Blockbuster fuelled industry we have today. The only rule is both picks of the week have to be first time viewing for the other. Contact us: kinotomic@gmail.com
