Ep122 - Projections Podcast (w/Mary Wild and Sarah Cleaver)

For this exciting episode Neil and Dario are joined by two of their favourite film podcasters, Mary and Sarah from the Projections podcast, a thematic, season-oriented show that looks at a huge swathe of cinema through the lens of psychoanalysis. In this episode, the four of them discuss psychoanalysis as a mode for cinema study, some of the problems with cancel culture, how Sarah and Mary went about starting Projections and their reflections on how the podcast has grown, sex in cinema, Eyes Wide Shut and Annie Hall. It’s a great conversation with two smart, fascinating podcasters. Thanks to them for dropping by to talk. You can listen to Projections wherever you get your podcasts and you can find out more about it here.

Details on Sarah’s Zodiac Film Club, can be found here. ——— You can listen to The Cinematologists for free, wherever you listen to podcasts: click here to follow.
