Unfolding Noir Flicks with Christian Schu

On today’s episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we uncover the truths of film noirs with Christian Schu (an award-winning German director of commercials and the featurette "Seconds in Eternity"), who gives a masterclass in noir cinema with three classic movies: "Shadow of a Doubt," "Pickup on South Street," and "Touch of Evil." Schu helps us expose the tropes and truisms of the genre by spotlighting the ways noir can be used as a trigger to discuss social themes; how Candy is sweet and commies can be beat; and why running into an airplane propeller isn’t always proof of guilt. For additional information, resources, and a transcript of the episode, visit https://www.podcastics.com/podcast/talking-movies-with-my-mom/ You can also follow us on Instagram @talkingmovieswithmymom.
