The Cinematic Odyssey

On the sixty-seventh episode of the Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max dive into Emanuele Crialese's semi-autobiographical work L'immensita: one of Max's favorite films. The Italian language quasi-musical brings your hosts into a discussion of properly depicting the transgender experience, allusions to other current films that address the subject, and a good bit of criticism for the Academy Award nominated film that tries its best in the same vein.

What is The Cinematic Odyssey?

On The Cinematic Odyssey podcast, your hosts and amateur film lovers Max Clark and Tristen Rodriguez take their film exploration beyond the blockbusters and through the art house sphere. We typically discuss the impact the film has had on us and the film world, memorable shots and the meaning behind certain narrative choices, and the design of the work from camera angles to costuming. With our own signature brand of humor and curiosity, follow our journeys and maybe take some recommendations home as we try to expand the mainstream recognition of great film.
