To kick off the first episode of the Film Chatter Podcast, Marisa and Aric explore New York independent films of the ‘60s, ‘70s, and ‘80s with a spotlight on some of the unheralded women filmmakers of the era.
These six films consist of Barbara Loden’s WANDA (1970), her first and only film that is a masterpiece of American independent cinema and a semi-autobiographical portrait of wandering souls in the American midwest, Claudia Weill’s GIRLFRIENDS (1978), the ‘70s time capsule portrait of women friendships, Shirley Clarke’s PORTRAIT OF JASON (1967), the cross-sectional study of the performative hustler Jason Holliday, John Cassavetes’ fairy-tale love story MINNIE AND MOSKOWITZ (1971), Lizzie Borden’s punk gem BORN IN FLAMES (1983), and Sara Driver’s haunting slow-burner YOU ARE NOT I (1981).
