FILM FORMALLY is back! This month, friend of the podcast Sophy Romvari’s films are premiering on the CRITERION CHANNEL and to mark the occasion we’ve recorded a set of commentaries for six of these films - NINE BEHIND, IT’S HIM, PUMPKIN MOVIE, NORMAN NORMAN, IN DOG YEARS, and STILL PROCESSING. We’ll be releasing one per week for the next six weeks.
To listen along, have the film ready to go and hit “play” when prompted within the episode after the introductions.
PUMPKIN MOVIE (2017)
Two women trade stories of misogyny while carving pumpkins over Skype as part of a Halloween tradition.
In this episode, we discuss:
The film’s extremely truncated pre-production and production timelines.
Ultra low-budget filmmaking and unconventional production methods.
Structuring 45-minute conversations with editing.
Documentary, fiction, and the way that PUMPKIN MOVIE inadvertently became a hybrid of the two.
Sophy’s films can be seen on the CRITERION CHANNEL - feel free to sign up for a free trial if you aren’t a member.
