4. Our Top 10 Experimental Directors

Daniel and Linas finally tackle the content everyone has been clamoring for. They list their individual top 10 experimental filmmakers. They attempt to explain the unexplainable, intellectualize simple pretty images, convince their podcast audience they're not completely insane (doubtful). Oh and afterwards Linas subjects Daniel to another surprise Saw trap. Can Daniel escape alive again?? Or is he uploading this from beyond the grave? Also take a shot every time Daniel says the word "frenetic." Timestamps below: Discussion of what "experimental" means (2:11) Linas' list: 10. Bill Gunn (12:57) 9. Kenneth Anger (18:28) 8.
