Coming out of the fashion industry of the 1960s, Joel Schumacher took a very roundabout path to get to Hollywood and gradually take on the mantle of a filmmaker in his own right. In this episode, Angie and Noel cover Joel's origins, explore the films on which he worked as a costume/production designer, and run through a checklist of his subsequent films to cover what each of us has already seen before we kick off this series going through each and every one of them.

Another podcast talking about movies? Sounds like I'll need to get my foot in the door on this one somewhere down the line!
ReplyDeleteActually looking at Schumacher's filmography I was surprised how few of his movies I have actually seen. Following along the list may shed some light on his his more famous successes and failures down the line so I will be watching with considerable interest.
It is a fascinating list of credits, isn't? Both for how varied it is, and for how little of it I've scene even though I've heard of much of it.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to hearing your thoughts as we continue, Erik!
Maybe it's because it's October but the films I'm most anticipating hearing you talk about are the scary, supernatural titles like Lost Boys or Flatliners.
DeleteAt least I'm looking forward to those more than the Batman movies if only because that feels like throughly tread ground. Though I'm sure a rewatching of either for the first time in I don't know how long might bring some new discussion points to the surface.
If you have the guest space I'd love to have a place in this operation somewhere along the line. From the look of this list there's no shortage of variety with which to be surprised.
Just discovered this podcast after hearing Noel on the Krull episode of the Projection Booth. Really enjoyed the first few episodes.
ReplyDeleteI run a website - www.1995batman.com - that is focused on Batman Forever. Please check it out - it's got copious magazine interviews, BTS photos and two versions of the script.
If there's anything I help with - give me a shout.
