Summary

Hello Film Buds of the World, This week, we’re continuing to expand our cinematic palette with the 1969 Egyptian film The Land. Based on a novel of the same name, and directed by internationally recognized Youssef Chahine, The Land continues as our last film did focusing on the story of a country still relatively freshly out of British Imperial rule, utilizing rural and agricultural environments and characters, religion, and more to create a thematically rich, sometimes dense, film. Beyond The Land we also talk about What We’re Watching, Disney news, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and more. We hope you all enjoy this peak into the universality of the human experience through the lens of international cinema as much as we are.

Hello Film Buds of the World,

This week, we’re continuing to expand our cinematic palette with the 1969 Egyptian film The Land. Based on a novel of the same name, and directed by internationally recognized Youssef Chahine, The Land continues as our last film did focusing on the story of a country still relatively freshly out of British Imperial rule, utilizing rural and agricultural environments and characters, religion, and more to create a thematically rich, sometimes dense, film.

Beyond The Land we also talk about What We’re Watching, Disney news, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and more.

We hope you all enjoy this peak into the universality of the human experience through the lens of international cinema as much as we are.
