The Cinematography of Psychopathy

Forensic analysis isn't limited to psychology. To demonstrate that, we're going to change it up in this episode and talk more deeply about how filmakers, directors and cinematographers can leverage their craft to bring characters and stories to life.  Leaning on decades of experience as a filmmaker, Josh will walk us through a deep dive into the outstanding cinematography of the new series Ripley (Netflix), and talk about how the high contrast, black and white film noir treatment reflects the psychopathic main character and enhances the viewer experience by creating a world that almost subconsciously draws us into the character's mind. We'll also talk a little more about the series vs. the 1999 film The Talented Mr. Ripley (Hulu), Catch Me If You Can (2003 - Netflix), and learn more about psychopathy along the way. If you are a film geek, this is the episode for you! Music by: ROSSER This is a public episode.
