Ep. 106.5 First Person: Likely Heroes

from The Pink Smoke podcast Hosted by The Pink Smoke

Host Christopher Funderburg is joined by critic & author Martin Kessler for the second of four episodes covering Errol Morris’ stunningly brilliant documentary television show, First Person. Filmed on Morris’ notorious documentary-interrogation device, The Interrotron, and touching on all his favorite obsessions, First Person brought Morris’ ground-breaking documentary style to the small screen. This podcast episode, titled “Likely Heroes,” focuses on the episodes of First Person that looked the rarest of all subjects in Morris’ oeuvre: heroes. Possibly. Maybe. Arguably heroes. This episodes covers “The Little Gray Man,” “Leaving the Earth,” “You’re Soaking in It!,” and “Mr. Debt.” Support our Patreon: www.patreon.com/thepinksmoke The Pink Smoke site: www.thepinksmoke.com Movie Kessler on Twitter: twitter.com/MovieKessler The Pink Smoke on Twitter: twitter.com/thepinksmoke Christopher Funderburg on Twitter: twitter.com/cfunderburg Intro music: Unleash the Bastards / “Tea for Two” Outro music: Marcus Pinn / “Vegas"
