Zach welcomes back return guests & Ballyhoo correspondents Andrew Bueno (Stand-Up Comedian, Writer), Matt Willocks (Filmmaker & Podcaster, ‘Pulp Cinematic Universe’ and ‘History of High Adventure’), and Jace Perrodin (Filmmaker) to unpack a true crime case turned controversial motion picture from Warner Bros. in 1939 as they dive deep into CONFESSIONS OF A NAZI SPY!
Tune in as the group lay out the details of the actual case, learn how the film was able to circumvent era censors and opposing forces, analyze its use of documentary & procedural crime drama, marvel at the bumbling nature of various characters, dissect the films effectiveness as a means of communicating a message, and finally settling upon how the film & the genre it created would change the face of cinema.
Research Notes for the film can be found here: https://ballyhoorevuepodcast.com/research-page/
