The Way We Watch

Fishko Files | Mar 28, 2013

A new film has WNYC's Sara Fishko thinking about so-called "movie-going."  Here's a Fishko Files report.

 

Room 237 is playing at IFC and at the Film Society of Lincoln Center starting tomorrow, Friday 3/29.

 

Watching Room 237, a film exploring theories about the meaning of The Shining, got us thinking about the way current media allows a new kind of scrutiny.

One example: Frank Delaney’s podcast Re:Joyce deconstructs James Joyce’s Ulysses in five-minute podcasts. Check out Re:Joyce, here.
