3.14-7th Heaven with Maria Banson

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is my 100th episode(!) and my conversation about the 1927 film 7th Heaven. My friend Maria Banson from the Brunello Bombshell newsletter joins me to discuss the film and we talk about the connection between Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell that began with this film, the religious undertones that keep cropping up throughout the film, and some stunning cinematography that has to be seen to be believed.You can watch 7th Heaven on YouTube and be sure to check out Maria's newsletter.Other films mentioned in this episode include:Moulin Rouge! directed by Baz LuhrmannStreet Angel directed by Frank BorzageSadie Thompson directed by Raoul WalshAladdin directed by John Musker and Ron ClementsCasablanca directed by Michael CurtizAnora directed by Sean BakerAll Quiet on the Western Front directed by Lewis MilestoneAll Quiet on the Western Front directed by Edward BergerDownton Abbey (series)Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans directed by F.
