In lieu of a full episode this week, we bring you the ninth in our series of bonus episodes, Better Know a Contributor, where we ask frequent guests of the show 10 Contra Zoom Pod movie questions so you can learn more about your favourite voices. On this show is Bil Antoniou, the host of the Bad Gay Movies Podcast and authoring of the monthly Criterion Shelf column (a column Dakota often contributes to as well). Dakota and Bil talk about the legacy of Yasujirō Ozu and Tokyo Story, whether or not to feel bad about having never seen Man With a Movie Camera and the greatness of Pedro Almodóvar.
Check out previous Better Know a Contributor shows focusing on Dakota, Rachel, Pierre and Jeff to learn more about the extended CZP family.
Follow Bil on Twitter and Instagram and read his latest Criterion Shelf blog post covering movies dealing with AI (including Dakota’s write ups on 2046 and Dark Star).
