"Los Angeles Plays Itself" (2003, Dir: Thom Anderson)

Ellis and Corbs talk about "Los Angeles Plays Itself," Thom Anderson's lengthy video essay about Movie City's place in the Movies, and the Movies place in Movie City. Topics include: Modernist Architecture: is it evil? The germ of the other American cinema we see in the end of this movie, and filming driving in Los Angeles and in Portland.  Corbin's reccomendation is an album, you can find it on a streaming service. Matt's is a video game he only kind of enjoyed.  Watch the movie here. Next week's episode is about "The Rocketeer," which you can watch over on Disney+.
