“When you record that podcast episode, just don’t tell me about it. Plausible deniability.”
This week on the podcast, podcast host Jim Saunders is joined by special guest Thomas Lin to talk about the feature length narrative debut from director Carlos Lopez Estrada, “Blindspotting”! Evocative, honest, and multifaceted in its portrayal of gentrification and racial identity in America, it’s easily one of the most important films of 2018. In this episode, we discuss the social issues presented throughout the film, its uncanny blend of comedy and drama, and how its 95 minute runtime makes its themes succinct and pack a real emotional weight. See the film for yourself, then check out the 57th episode of the UW Film Club Podcast!
