What is 70mm?

A podcast for movie fans, inspired by Letterboxd. (We're not experts.) Each week artist Danny Haas, spiritual advisor Protolexus, and journeyman podcaster Slim discuss a recently watched film together. A brand new theme each month. Their love for each other cannot be broken. Or can it?
