Ep. 64: You and Me (1938) or ‘The Lyrical Lament of Lang’

Zach welcomes back filmmaker and podcaster Henry Jarvis ('Reel Nerds Podcast', 'Artery and Vain') in an emergency broadcast situation as they dissect and discuss Fritz Lang's 1938 gangster-fueled musical love story, YOU AND ME. Pull up a chair ya mugs and get comfortable as the two catch up with Lang since his fleeing to America, learn more about the film's multi-talented star George Raft, break into the chaos of the film production, break down the plot in great detail, marvel at the visual acumen stuck in a standard story, find themselves in rapture over the Sylvia Sydney storyline, revel in the un-traditional approach to musicals the film takes, and finally expounding upon the many lessons the film teaches about filmmaking and film business that one can find happening to this very day. PLUS: Fritz Lang sings Henry a lullaby. ------------ Be Sure to Listen to Henry Jarvis on Reel Nerds Podcast https://reelnerdspodcast.com/ and check out Henry's films on his YouTube Page: Creative Hell Entertainment: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCScezobjbq6Kt88So8lAmvA
