A podcast by Alissa Wilkinson and Sam Thielman (and assorted awesome guests) about Christianity and the movies -- all kinds of movies.

Hello! Long time no post! Alissa is writing her book and Sam is working on [REDACTED] and we have let this fall by the wayside a little bit in the interest of drawing out the length between episodes, since we have precious little time to record these days. But we really ought to announce that sort of thing in the future, and for this we apologize. We have a very fun episode for you today, a little out of date but none the worse for wear, with the great Mason Mennenga, on James Wan’s faith-based film The Conjuring. We hope you enjoy it.
The image on the website is plate 43 from Francisco Goya’s series of 80 aquatint etchings, ‘Los Caprichos.’ The inscription on the stone table where the sleeping figure is resting their head reads translates to “The sleep of reason brings forth monsters.” Via The Met (https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/338473).

Vol. 2, Ep. 16: Beep Beep Yeah
Hello! We have acquired a wonderful producer, John Kemp, an old friend of Sam’s who offered to help a bit ago and whom Sam in his generalized lack of organization finally followed up with much more recently. John’s great, as you can hear, and we’re thrilled to have him aboard. This may also mean a more regular pod sked for a bit, and as such, we offer yet again a plea to subscribers: Please become one! This month (April, not March, as Sam says on the pod), if you subscribe, we will enter you in a drawing to receive an autographed copy of Alissa’s book! We’ll draw the names out of a hat on a future ep.
This week we talked about Drive My Car, a gorgeous film by Ryusuke Hamaguchi about cars and love and fatherhood and Uncle Vanya. Sam talks a little about having been a stage actor briefly; Alissa read the original short stories and has wise thoughts.
