Special Episode: King of Hearts / The Jerk

First special episode of the new year!

Today, UMassterclass is featuring an episode by the team’s very own Kaliska Wiley! This special was produced through Professor Daniel Pope’s Film Writing and Criticism course, where students study films from an array of genres, periods in film history, international cinemas, and underrepresented voices. In a podcast workshop, Wiley and her friend, Andrew Bove, take a look at two vastly different comedies: King of Hearts (1966) and The Jerk (1979). Between these two movies they call their parents’ favorites, they chat about how to define comedy, madness, & theatrical clowning. Let’s take a listen! Happy Valentine’s day!

Hosted/Edited/Produced by Kaliska Wiley & Andrew Bove | Introduced by Rianna Jakson | Podcast art by Jacky Celestino | Theme music by Ryan Gies
