The Criterion Break with Andy and Blake - Episode 7 - A Brighter Summer Day - Our Everests, Part One

Send us Fan MailAfter a long hiatus, Andy and Blake return for another Criterion Break. On this week's episode, the duo discuss what they have watched during their time off, and take a look at the list of titles set to arrive in the Collection proper in November. The two then take a deeper dive into Andy's Mt. Everest title, A Brighter Summer Day (1991; spine #804). Andy's Everest was selected because of its nearly four-hour runtime. How did our hosts take to Edward Yang's personal project than has been widely hailed as an underseen masterpiece?Andy can be found across social media at:Facebook - Fat Dude Digs FlicksInstagram - FatDudeDigsFlicksTwitter - FatDudeFlicksBlake can be found on:Instagram - blakeg_5150And as a part of:Facebook - Back Lot 605Instagram - BackLot605Twitter - BackLot605Subscribe to this podcast and the Back Lot 605 podcast on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio, or wherever you get your podcasts.
