The Empathy Machine Podcast w/J&J
Episode 8- Amadeus (1984) - Kyle G. & The Js
Season 0, Ep. 8
•
In our sixth-ever episode, and we have an amazing industry/commercial editor of film and ads, Kyle G as our guest. And, boy did we decide to take on a heavy one, a movie many may consider a cinematic masterpiece, Amadeus (1984). An amazing triumph of a film with lots of accolades and awards, but such things do not matter to the loftier minds of geniuses such as ourselves. (OR at least I think it doesn't, I don't know I'm not actually a genius) We talk of things like what makes great art, masterpieces, and how a film that talks about the nature of geniuses and art becomes a masterpiece in itself. Take a listen and all shall be revealed! (Actually, that is not true, we don't know all of that, but listen anyway.)
