NOTE: Due to developments regarding COVID-19 following the recording of this episode, we understand that many of the films discussed, if not all, will not be screened in the month of April. Instead, we urge our listeners to find these films and watch them in the midst of our current social isolation, if at all possible. Many streaming services can be accessed with a free 14-day trial, including criterionchannel.com, which is currently streaming both Safe, and Come and See, and First Reformed can also be found on Crave. Otherwise, we hope that we are at least able to provide informative discussion and opinion in light of circumstances beyond our control.

Paul's excellent procedural film score to Beep - A Documentary History Of Game Sound, and also Brighton's Mighty Lord Deathman.
